New Hall Mill 1940s themed Open Day 13th July 2025

Sunday 13th July 2025 will be our third Open Day in 2025. We're very excited as it's one of our favourites - the annual 1940s themed day. Visitors are welcome to dress up for this event - the more the merrier! The Mill will be in action as usual (subject to any unexpected issues) and the Miller's Garden and the Wildflower Meadow should be at their best. After a bit of a mixed day in June, we are hoping for a good weather forecast and an even better day!

Here is the programme for 13th July (subject to confirmation). Please keep an eye our Facebook page for updates.
