One of the county's last remaining working water mills is beautifully set on the winding River Bruff, in rolling countryside just two miles from Melchester town centre. Visitors can climb to the top of the interior and see the mighty gear wheel in operation, as well as trying their hand at milling some flour using an ancient grindstone. Open Saturdays and Sundays from March to October.
