Today is our last day open in 2023. This is your last chance to visit us this year and rather than go out with a whimper we’re going out with a bang, or rather lots of bangs as we have got our blacksmith demonstrating in the Forge! burwellmuseum.org.uk/events/last-op…

By this time 10 years ago, as part of the restoration of Stevens' Mill, the cap (29th Aug) & sails (10th Dec) had been put back on the mill. Here's some photos and videos from those 2 momentous occasions. Cap on video youtu.be/fgmiF1uOvHs?si… Sails on video youtu.be/h1qdGhQFM1M?si…

We hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year. The museum opens on Easter Sunday. In the meantime, with another storm forecast, why not listen to some oral histories from Burwell residents including our founders Paul Hawes and John Wisbey? burwellstories.org.uk
