A rare example of a tide mill whose water wheel still turns

Wheels and stones turn, grinding the grain as they have done for many hundreds of years.

Visit The Tide Mill, Woodbridge, one of only a handful in the world still producing flour on a regular basis and among the first tide mills in the country, working on the same site for well over 800 years. Our friendly wardens will guide you around a host of interactive activities, unique computer generated imagery and children’s activities to help you discover how the grain and ultimately the flour move around the Mill. Most days you can even see the huge oak water wheel turning.
