The Windmill grounds are open to visitors all year
round. However, we must stress there is no
smoking anywhere within the grounds. Please
take any rubbish with you and please do not
climb on the Windmill.
Or come to one of our regular open days for a self guided tour and view
the machinery within the interior. There are also displays on the Windmill’s
history within the Roundhouse where you will find a mill related video,
which will also be playing as part of the tour. It makes for a different,
educational and in whole a fascinating fun day out in Surrey for all the
family
The National Mills Weekend is to advertise the importance of maintaining
and protecting traditional mills so they can be kept in good working order.
