Open Days
Herne Mill is open to the public from Easter until the end of September, 2pm until 5pm with last admissions at 4:30pm.
All open days are subject to the availability of sufficient volunteers to act as mill managers, guides and sales staff.
The mill can be open by appointment at other times subject to the availability of sufficient guides. If you would like to book a tour of the mill, please get in touch.
Work parties are held most Wednesday mornings from 10am to 12pm.
All Friends of Herne Mill, old and new, are welcome to come along and help with maintenance tasks that range from cleaning to carpentry, painting to engineering, gardening to tidying up.
All skill levels are welcome and if you want to try your hand at more skilled jobs, training will be given.
Additional work parties for specific jobs will be arranged as necessary.
