⚙️ Stotfold Watermill Opening Day 2026 - Free Entry
Time: 12:30 - 17:00
🌳 THE NATURE RESERVE
The Nature Reserve is open all year round, except 9th-10th May and 10th-11th October 2026.
📖 HISTORY
Nobody is certain of the exact date, but it is likely that a watermill has stood on the site of the current Stotfold Mill beside the River Ivel for over a thousand years and it is certainly one of the oldest recorded buildings in the town. The first written evidence is the mention of four mills in Stotfold in the Domesday book of 1086. One of those four was the currently-named Stotfold Mill.

ℹ️ DETAILS
There’s no need to stay for the whole session, just pop along when you can to help out. Everyone is welcome. We would also love to meet anyone who is interested in regular Conservation Volunteering in Ampthill Park. There is an opportunity to join a new volunteer group meeting every month to work alongside the Park Rangers and undertake a variety of conservation tasks.
These two events are opportunities to come and find out more.
🏵 SNOWDROP FLOWERS
Snowdrops are closely associated with remembrance so you may want to plant snowdrops in memory of a loved one and be part of a larger community effort. The bulbs will flower early next year, 200 years after Lord and Lady Holland planted the double Lime Avenue. This will form part of the Alameda’s 200th anniversary celebrations in 2027.
🌱 TOOLS PROVIDED
The park team will be on site to provide tools and show you what to do. If you are interested in the Conservation volunteering, we will explain our plans and provide information.
ℹ️ FOR MORE INFORMATION & LOCATION
Further Information on volunteering and any updates for this event will be available via Ampthill Town Council's website and you can email council@ampthill-tc.gov.uk for more information.
