Sturminster Newton Heritage Trust Mill Open Day

Sturminster Newton Town Mill, The Bridge, Quay Road, Sturminster Newton, Dorset, DT10 2HW

  • 17 Sep 2025
  • In person
  • Pre-booking not required

A fascinating working mill in the heart of the Dorset countryside.

Recently discovered evidence suggests this mill largely dates from 1566, on a more ancient milling site which could date back to 1016. Powered by a 100 year old turbine, the machinery should be running for this open day, and volunteers will be available for more information about this historic site.

There are picnic tables, free parking, a mill shop and a pub nearby.
