Tractor Day – This Sunday April 30th

Tractor Days are always popular and we are again pleased to welcome the ever popular collection of Vintage and Veteran Tractors to Heage Windmill this Sunday, April 30th from 11-00 am until 4-00pm.

These old pieces of farming equipment complement the 220 year old windmill and helped change the farm industry for ever , making horses almost redundant.

They include 60 year old Ford and Massey Fergusons and have mostly been restored to pristine condition.

There are many photo opportunities and even the chance of sitting on board one! Tours of the mill and light refreshments will, of course, be available.

Heage Windmill is open every Saturday and Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday from April to the end of October, 11am to 4pm. For Admission Prices, Details of Group and School Visits and Where to Find us, click here >

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 >
