Foodie Friday

First Friday of each month after the Milling Demonstrations and Tours, we will be holding the popular Foodie Friday, a mini-market with a range of freshly-milled flours and oats, freshly-baked breads, stalls selling savories, cakes, and quiches.

Heritage Walks

Whilst urgent repairs to the mill launder take place, you are invited to join Iain on these fascinating walks through the local landscapes, listen to stories filled with knowledge, folklore and myth!
