The Mill Tower
OT 2.81 lists the mill tower as a single hex 2 1/2 level building, with a rooftop.

1)? - Does it have a 1st level and a 2nd level that can see the outside world/ out of the windows? - or is it windowless silo with cellar, ground and roof?

2)? - The Roof becomes level 3 right? (because of the extra 1/2 of being on a roof) - NRBH sorry

(the reason I ask is that the Cathedral is very specific about what Hex Q17 has, but the tower is not)

Cellars and Trenches and connecting and village roads
3) ? - Can a Trench which sets up next to a building that has a narrow street village road 'between them' connect to that building (/its cellar see below)?

4) ? - Does a Trench connect to the Cellar and the Ground location of an adjacent building (assuming no village road or the answer to the above ? is yes) OR just the cellar if there is one. Rule 2.721 talks about the cellar but OT7 says Trenches connect to ALL building locations ADJACENT.

A two-story building has its rooftop at level 2.5 as well as being a level 2.5 obstacle. The roof is always at a half-level above the highest internal level, here level 2 [B23.8] (unless somehow the SSRs make an inhabitable level at level 2.5, which would be non-standard ASL).

Hi Nathan,

The Mill Tower is a normal single-hex building, with normal LOS to/from the 1st and 2nd Level Locations.

JR is correct (Thanks JR!) on the rooftop Location, it is at Level 2.5.

Trenches connect to ADJACENT buildings, even if separated by a village road.

Trenches would connect to the lowest level, so if there is a cellar location, it would connect to it.

Have fun!

Tom

Although your question is answered from the rules perspective, I might still add the following picture of the "real" Mühlenturm in Rees (as of 2008):
