The mill, a Grade II listed building, is nestled in a beautiful spot on the edge of Bunbury village.

The grounds include the historic mill, a visitors' centre, car park, tea room, an idyllic picnic area, the mill pond and wildlife pond. Whatever the weather, there is plenty to do and see at the mill where local enthusiasts are on hand to paint an exciting picture of the mill’s history, with demonstrations and hands-on opportunities.

Guided tours

  

Visitors are conducted through the mill in a guided tour lasting around 40 minutes. We are very hands-on, and you will be put to work when you enter the mill. 

 

You could be weighing the grain, winnowing, ringing the bell, starting the wheel, shaking the shoe, trying to hand grind wheat and then testing the quality of the flour. Scroll the pictures to the left to see what you could be doing.

 

If you do really well, you can start on Monday at 5a.m. working as an apprentice at one shilling a week!

​

There's no need to book a tour - just turn up on the day!
