New Hall Mill Open Day 31st Aug 2026

New Hall Mill Open Day 31st Aug 2026

The penultimate Open Day of the season! The Mill and its working waterwheel were in full working order, and as usual, we demonstrated how the mill grinds wholemeal flour. We welcomed an amazing 1167 visitors and the rain held off all day (we don't count that little 5 minute shower).
