Since the 16th century there has been a mill on this site and the present stone buildings date from the 18th century. The conical roofed kiln and attractive red pantiled buildings make Preston Mill a popular haunt for photographers and artist, while the nearby millpond with resident ducks and geese provides the finishing touches to an idyllic countryside spot.
Visitors can see and hear the mechanisms in action and find out about the working life of a miller.
