Holgate Windmill Open Days - Summer 2008
 

We will be opening our doors on May 10th & 11th May for National Mills Weekend and then on the first weekend of every month during summer 2008 to allow people to see our progress on the restoration of the mill. There has been a great deal going on over the winter months, so there's alot to see.

A knowledgeable committee member will be present on each floor to give further information and answer any questions you may have. There will be displays and storyboards depicting the life story of the mill, and HWPS merchandise will be available to buy.
