  welcome

 

We are a group based in Hampshire, England, interested in mills of all types - watermills, windmills, tide mills - with many members who own mills and welcome the opportunity to share their enthusiasm.

We are a friendly group and  meet four times a year in a variety of Hampshire mills.  A quarterly newsletter is circulated to all members and we are now adding it to this website.  The newsletters contain an eclectic mix of news of our activities, articles on mills and milling, reports on visits, poems, recipes and much more ....

mills open to the public

With over 240 watermills and 100 windmill sites Hampshire holds a wealth of history.   Keeping records up to date is a continuous task.  Our millennium project was to compile a complete photographic record of all extant Hampshire Mills.  We link here to some of the mills that are open to the public or are of general interest.

Please check with a mill before you visit to find out if and when they are open.
