Bradwell Mill is a Grade II listed landmark and is open to the public on selected days throughout the year, when the mill can be seen in action.

⭐️ Only a limited number of people can access the upstairs at a time – so you may have to wait.

⭐️ Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.

⭐️ There are no toilet facilities available.

Admission is free but donations towards the upkeep are very much welcome.

🅿️ PARKING
Parking is in Nightingale Court, off Wheelers Lane. There is no access to the mill from Mill Lane (off Bradwell Road).
