Unusual Building Hire

Woodbridge Tide Mill is a beautiful, if relatively small, space that, in the right circumstances, may be used as a venue.

The Mill is allowed to have 50 visitors in it at any time to meet fire regulations and abide by its insurers requirements. Furthermore the Mill is over 850 years old and an unheated, wooden building next to water and so, at certain times of the year, it is cold.

Despite being chilly at times, the Mill has hosted pop-up restaurants over its three floors as well as presentations, book launches and private parties to select audiences in the past. It makes for a quirky venue to host such smaller gatherings during which catering and Guides can be provided if required.

If you agree, and are planning an event, then why not contact us at enquiries.woodbridgetidemill@gmail.com with your requirements and we’ll see if we can help.

And don’t forget: Friends of Woodbridge Tide Mill Museum get a lower rate.

Woodbridge stands on the A12, the road that links London and Lowestoft and on the rail line that links Ipswich with Lowestoft. From either direction follow signs to Woodbridge and take any entrance into the town. The Tide Mill is by the river and accessible from several car parks. See the Plan Your Visit page for more details.

Woodbridge Tide Mill is a three storey, Grade I listed building dating back to 1793. The Mill itself is the exhibit. This means it has narrow stairs which we cannot change and we cannot install a lift.
Those who cannot venture up stairs can have a look around via the Mill’s entry on the Bloomberg Connects App and via our interactive tour
