As part of our 50th birthday celebrations at Heatherslaw Mill, we’d like to invite one and all to come and have a look around this Summer! 👀
Since November 1975 the mill has been open as a heritage visitor attraction, focused on keeping the craft of milling and the availability of quality, local stoneground flours alive. 🌾
From June until August we are throwing our doors open and getting rid of our entry fee! In its place, we kindly ask for donations of any size to support our Mill and hopefully keep its mill wheel grinding for another 50 years. ☀️
We’re proud that our mill has retained its traditional purpose and, after over 700 years of milling history on this site, it is now the last working watermill in Northumberland and one of the few remaining in the UK.
🙏 We look forward to continuously making more improvements as our ancestors did, whilst still keeping the traditional craft of milling true to its original processes and techniques.
Whether you like to see and learn about grains and our changing diets, or how necessity proved the mother of invention, how buildings such as watermills ran sustainably and in harmony with their local landscape for hundreds of years… or just fancy getting some of the best stoneground flour you can find, Heatherslaw Mill has something for everyone. 👍
We hope visitors new and returning will enjoy coming to “mill around” with us this Summer.
