Heage Windmill is open for visitors during summer weekends and Bank Holidays. This video gives a glimpse of the windmill.
We were delighted to be chosen as finalists for the Excel 2010 awards but, sorry to say, we did not win this year- but we will be back! However we are still very happy to welcome you to the mill and to see it in action yourself - why not pay us a visit? - we are open every weekend now until the end of October.
