The British countryside was once dotted with thousands of windmills, as so many landscape paintings testify. Large numbers of these windmills fell out of use in the 19th century and, without upkeep, gradually fell into dereliction as they were buffeted by the winds they had once harnessed so fruitfully. Thousands were simply demolished. Watermills, meanwhile, were being converted into homes with little thought given to preserving the heritage of the building. Major was particularly adept at this work because as an architect he was able to produce fine drawings of the mill building as it would be restored as well as mechanical drawings of the mill workings. This helped to convince many sceptics of the case for restoring the building to its former condition. Added to this was his passion for the subject. He built up an impressive collection of photographs and other documents relating to mills. His encyclopaedic knowledge was vital for providing the missing links for the restoration of mills that were already dilapidated and missing much of their original workings.
