Bursledon Windmill: Visit this restored tower mill and see and hear the machinery turning. Its wooden machinery, a direct copy of the original, is in full working order. A typical visit begins with an 8 minute film showing you around the site and inside the mill.
Take the mill tour with our well informed and experienced staff where you can see the machinery close-up. All visitors are able to visit the ground floor or operations control room. Then try grinding flour by hand in the barn using the ancient saddle quern or the medieval rotary quern. The mill grinds wheat making stone-ground flour as it did in the 19th century.
Also Windmill Wood Nature Trail - Young woodland habitat next to the windmill supports a wide range of wildlife including woodpeckers.
