working watermill and more in the heart of Lyme Regis
Open throughout the Year
A ten-year restoration project to rescue this ancient
but derelict watermill in the heart of Lyme Regis was completed in 2001.
The Town Mill, which dates from 1340, is now back in full working
order and open to visitors throughout the year.
Visitor Comment of the Month:
'Interesting combination of the old and the new using water power'
Richard and Nina Armitage, Bucks
As well as the water-powered flour mill, the mill building now has a 'state of the art' hydro-electric system to generate 'green' electricity. The Town Mill complex also houses art galleries, a café/bistro, craft studios and workshops, a bakery, a mill shop and the Miller's garden. Inside the mill there are also small exhibitions highlighting the River Lim and its environment and the arrival of electricity in Lyme Regis at the start of the 20th century .
