Have Your Wedding Photographed

If you are getting married locally – or know of someone who is – the Friends of Heage Windmill offer the opportunity of using our Derbyshire attraction as a backdrop for wedding photos.

Furthermore, every bride photographed at the windmill will be presented with a hand pyrographed and decorated wedding spoon.

All we ask for is a minimum donation of £25 for weekend photos (£50 midweek) which covers the cost of the wedding spoon and helps towards the upkeep of the mill.

In the early 19th century, Britain had 10,000 windmills. Heage Windmill experienced fluctuating fortunes until the Heage Windmill Society was formed in 1995. To discover Heage Windmill's history and how it was restored to working order, click here >

All our flour is stoneground at the windmill from wheat grown in this country and can normally be bought at the mill during visiting times, and at Bakewell Farmers' Markets every month. For more about our flour, click here >

Heage Windmill cannot operate without volunteers, so why not join us? To read more about the different ways you can help - as a miller, guide, working in the shop or helping out at the farmers' markets, click here >

Please note the wind speed. If it is more than 5 or 6 mph, then normally the sails will be turning.
