Additional description
Only photos of the windmill from 2009 here (also check a previous page).
We have been in Skoryatino in the end of 2018. Local woman spread her hands "when collective farms fell apart, they disassembled it". It doesn’t quite fit with photos of 2009, however we couldn't search for the mill in the dark. We assume that the historical monument does not exist.
One more southeast smock. The windmill with a "skirt".
