"The Story of Howsham Mill" by Martin Phillips

Product Description

As seen on BBC Restoration Village in 2006, Howsham Mill sits on a small island in the River Derwent near Malton in North Yorkshire. It was built in 1755 to impress, a glorious gothic eye-catcher, but fell into disrepair after it ceased milling activities in 1947.

A chance discovery in 2003 resulted in the formation of the Renewable Heritage Trust and a project to restore this beautiful building and give it a new lease of life for the 21st century.  It is testament to the dogged determination of a group of local people in the face of statutory authorities saying "no", lack of funds, flooding and vandalism that the project reached completion at all.

The waterwheel and two Archimedean screws turbines now generate hydro-electricity and the mill itself serves as an eco Education Centre.

This is its story.
