A windmill turns because the blades face into the wind and are pitched (twisted) so that the air passing onto the blades pushes the blade around the pivot point. If the blade is pitched one way, the windmill will turn to CCW. If they are pitched the other way, it will turn CW.= There may be a convention or tradition or popular design in Ireland that pitches the blades so it turns CW.=
