Recordist's notes

Het Jonge Schaap is the wooden wind powered sawmill, located in the Zaanse Schans, in the municipality of Zaanstad. The original mill was built in 1680 and demolished in 1942. In 2007, a replica of the mill at between the mills "De Zoeker" and "De Bonte Hen" was built. The velocity of the saw depends on the wind. It was rather mild weather.
