Windmill (in Ruins) — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Three storeys of circular stone still stand on a Galway rise, their opposing east and west doorways waiting for carts that stopped coming decades ago. The mill measured 7.8m high and 3.5m across, set on a 30m level platform ringed by a faint bank. It is not a collapsed heap but a hollowed chamber, large enough to walk through and imagine the rope, sail and grind inside.

On a rise in undulating farmland. Well-preserved shell of a three-storey circular windmill (D 3.5m, H 7.8m) with a basal plinth. There are opposing doorways at E and W and several windows survive. The mill was built on a level platform (D 30m), around which faint traces of an enclosing bank are visible.
