In post 1282 Conquest Cymru/Wales, the Welsh could labour in what fertile fields they had left but the wheat then had to be sold cheaply to the English Mill Owners linked to the Anglo - Norman Castle Townships. They sold the flower to the Colonial Settler Bakers who made the bread at a profit from sale to the English 'Townies'. As for 'Y Cymry', well they were barred from the towns so could not buy any fresh bread, they possibly eat the stale stuff dumped in the skips outside the Colonial Settlers Castle Towns.
Thus whilst there was good economic reason for Glyndwr to destroy the Windmills, often quickly by breaking or running off with the grinding milling stones, I think a lot of the destruction was as much about Y Gwerin Owain getting their own back. If you now you would like to get your own back against present day wind Turbines, come join y Gwerin Owain - Owain's Folk Welsh Resistence to Colonial Oppression of People, Exploitation of Community and Land and Expropriation of Natural Resources:

It's Time Patriots learnt from our history, that there is a time to talk and a time for ACTION! That time is now, so come out of your blog closets, put away your Patriotic Playstations and leave your Facebook Fusilier Fantasies behind. Not least no longer fool yourselves that Plaid Cymru will take you towards Independence, that's delusional anyway how can you be Independent of England but still a Colony of the European Union Empire. Forget as well striving for a Welsh Republic that will never be, all such Nationalist Illusions are just that 'Illusions' that bring only defeat and despair. Patriotic Politics hence comes not from 'Wagger' self decieving 'Devolution Dilettante' politics but from extra - Parlimentary Struggle in defence of Land and Liberty, Community and People and stoping our natural resouces being so cheaply stolen by theives that come in the night aided by 'Turbine Traitors' confusing all with a fog of treachery and betrayal.
Come Compatriots it is time to be picking up the Pitchfork and the Pike in Protest, that's the lesson of your history - Now listen to the call down the ages to awake, arise and to advance in Committed and Couragous Cymric Campaigns, the Priority being to stop the Windmilling of Wales to make of our Country a Post Industrial Capitalist - Globalist Eco Colony:
