The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Les trois moulins à vent de Cherrueix datent du 19e siècle. L'exploitation du site, favorisée par les vents réguliers de la baie du Mont-Saint-Michel, est certainement antérieure. Ils ont été protégés séparément et sont de type tour, en granit, et de même volume. Ce moulin a été transformé en habitation.

The three windmills of Cherrueix date from the 19th century. The exploitation of the site, favoured by the regular winds of the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel, is certainly earlier. They have been protected separately and are of tower type, in granite, and of the same volume. This mill has been converted into a residence.
