The Great British Mill Race: How you can help us document the mills of the UK

The Mills Archive is launching the Great British Mill Race competition in conjunction with the SPAB National Mills Weekend, 14-15 May 2016 (then ongoing).

We are inviting the general public to join the Great British Mill Race by uploading photographs and comments to a web form hosted on our website, relating to mills they have seen or visited all over the UK.

Help us as we race against time to save a record of our milling heritage. Add information & pictures of mills you visit this year and join the Great British Mill Race.
