Summary

[edit]
Description

On Bridge Street in Winchester. The bridge crosses the River Itchen near City Mill.

<a href="http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/winchester-city-mill/" rel="noreferrer nofollow">City Mill</a> is run by the National Trust.

The City Mill is a rare surviving example of an urban working corn mill, powered by the fast-flowing River Itchen, which can be seen passing under the mill, thrilling our visitors.

Rebuilt in 1743 on a medieval mill site, it remained in use until the early 20th century. The National Trust recently undertook an ambitious restoration project, and the mill resumed grinding flour in March 2004.

With hands-on activities for families and audio-visual displays about milling and the rich wildlife in the area, the City Mill is a lively and informative place for all ages to enjoy.

Grade II* listed building.
