STONE CROSS WINDMILL

Sunday 12 April The Windmill opens
from 12 to 4pm for the 2026 season.

The Windmill Tower is looking very sad at the moment and requires extensive re-painting.  But like all heritage buildings it is becoming more difficult to obtain grants to complete the work required.  However the Trust are grateful to the Shepham Community Benefit Fund that has awarded substantial grants in the past to
complete essential work at the Windmill.

Please ensure that membership monies, which are due this month, are paid as soon as possible preferably using bank transfer.  This money helps to maintain the building in pristine condition so that it remains open to the public and continues to mill flour.  The Trust are grateful to the maintenance volunteers who meet every Monday as this helps to keep costs at a manageable level.

Wholemeal flour using locally grown wheat and ground by the mill is available to purchase.
We look forward to seeing you and celebrate
your generosity throughout the season.

The volunteer maintenance team has shrunk over the years due to age and arthritic joints – if you would like to contribute to the continuing maintenance of the Windmill please contact the chair.  The maintenance team ensure that all parts of the Windmill are kept in pristine working order.

Please visit the Windmill as this iconic building needs your support and donations.  The Trust welcomes groups to explore the Windmill and can provide talks to local groups providing a further source of income.

Stone Cross Mill Trustees can also provide interesting talks to local groups about the
history of the Windmill and its
relevance to the local area.

Please contact the chair for further details.

A big thank you to all our supporters who have been so generous with donations and who continue to visit the Windmill, providing essential funds to help maintain the building. Further information and dates will be here on the website.
