Why do windmills turn clockwise in Ireland?

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.=

In theory the less blades you use on a windmill the faster it's top speed will be. There have been one bladed designs in the past that have worked, they just never really caught on. Not to mention a one bladed design is harder to start up in light winds. Hope this helps.
