Well worth the walk out from the city centre. We were very pleasantly surprised regarding how much we enjoyed this and learned a lot. Ran by volunteers who are both passionate and knowledgeable. More

Absolutely amazing. Visited on Saturday 6th December. Had a very informative tour which was unexpected but so so useful and interesting. The volunteers there helped to restore the windmill. Just wish I lived closer so I could volunteer too! More
