Scope and content
Alan Gifford comments: "The fantail at Heage operates a pair of twin pinions on the rack inside the top of the tower. A hand cranking mechanism is incorporated, to be used if the wind direction has changed significantly since last in use. This entire system was completely overhauled by the contractors."
