It was not enough, however, to salvage a point.
The victory for gives Windmill gives them a four point cushion at the top, while Roborough remain a point from a position of safety.
DIVISION THREE
AFTER last weekend's heartache against Star Garage, Morley Rangers B this time profited from a late goal, with Simon Sutherland's penalty giving them a 3-3 draw with University of Plymouth C.
They trailed twice against University, and at 3-1 down needed Sutherland's brace to keep them level on points with their opponents in mid-table.
Debutant Jamie Denhen cancelled out Olly Sealey's opener for the students in what was a close encounter, with Rangers' Nick Chubb taking plaudits for his team.
DIVISION FOUR
PHIL BURGOYNE scored with virtually the last kick of the game to continue his fine scoring run and give Plymstock United a 3-2 win at Plymouth Rangers.
United took the lead five minutes before the interval when Lee Strickland netted directly from a corner, but Ramazan Isik levelled for the hosts.
Rangers had worked hard on their Tothill pitch to ensure the game went ahead, but again fell behind when Burgoyne grabbed his first,however, towards the end Florin Decean grabbed an equaliser.
However, there was still time for Burgoyne to notch his sixth goal in just four appearances for Plymstock, who retain slim hopes of promotion.
Stu Martin and Lewis Pringle each scored twice as Novahomes triumphed 6-1 at Princetown.
Playing up the slope, Novahomes held a slender 1-0 advantage at the break, but led by in-form captain Paul Greenway, they eventually eased to victory.
Pringle scored the goal of the game with a screamer from outside the area, while Steve Lord and Greenway each netted after neat build-up play.
Princetown managed a consolation when Ryan Smale scored from the spot after Robbie Court was fouled, but this result made it four successive defeats.
