Essential work taking place

Important Update: Windmill Repairs to Begin on 3rd November 2025

Due to the nature and complexity of the works there will be no public access to the windmill building during this period. However, the interactive science centre and award-winning garden will remain open for general visits Wednesday to Sunday 10am-4pm. Entry is free. We’re still available for school visits, parties etc and will operate a partial programme of public events.
