Woodbridge Tide Mill Museum is a Grade I listed mill dating from 1170, that still mills flour. Restored, it is a popular, interactive museum where working machinery and milling bring history to life
Good to meet our friends at #choosewoodbridge last night. We must remember to send them our events! #woodbridgetidemillmuseum #community

Above the wallower is the governor, the automatic tentering gear. Woodbridge is the only known British tide mill to have one. It compensates for variations in the speed of the waterwheel. They're common on windmills as wind speeds vary, but why did we need one?#woodbridgetidemillmuseum

An illustration of the 'Corn Route' in Oct 2011. It shows that the Flour Dresser (giant sieve) the boxy thing top right, was driven directly off the Layshaft. Also it shows that the flour must have been hoisted up the Mill again for this process. Sheesh #woodbridgetidemillmuseum #milling

In 1793 the present mill was built on the site of earlier ones. By the 1950s it had become the last working tide mill in the country, but in 1957 finally closed. It was saved in 1968, restored and opened to the public in 1973. #woodbridgettidemillmuseum

A vessel named ESPERANTO at #woodbridge riverside during #woodbridgetidemill's 'corrugated period' 1790-1971. Anyone have more information?

Gillian was leaving. She’d seen Brian try a backflip before and it was messy. #woodbridgetidemillmuseum

Ken was beginning to doubt that the Mill's new solid state drive was any better than its old hard disk drives. #woodbridgetidemillmuseum
