Our local windmill is celebrating the fact that, after two quiet years, it can now open more fully to the public. On 1st May, from 11am to 4pm, join in a ‘Welcome Back to the Mill’ Special Event Day. Enjoy Ditchling and Hammersmith Morris, Punch and Judy, a barbeque and live music provided by The Millers Blues Band, South Downs Folk singers, Ditchling Singers and Kevin Russell.

In addition, you will be able to come and see inside the oldest regularly working windmill in Sussex. Refreshments, memorabilia and Oldland Mill’s own flour will be available for sale. On 3rd April, from 2pm to 5pm, Oldland Mill is also holding its first open day for two years where a team of volunteers will have refreshments available.

Please note, no vehicles are allowed at the mill. Please park in Grand Avenue near the Thatched Inn and either walk up Oldlands Lane or make use of the complimentary minibus. Further details on the website: www.oldlandwindmill.co.uk/newsite
