The parish of Pakenham is unique in Britain in having both a working watermill and a working windmill. The 18th century watermill, the oldest working watermill in Suffolk and now owned by the Suffolk Building Preservation Trust, is on a Domesday site. Here, for almost a thousand years, millers have been using the simple technology of water power to produce stone-ground wholemeal flour from locally-grown wheat. The mill is maintained and operated by a team of dedicated volunteers who continue the tradition.
There are pleasant walks beside the mill-pond, a beautiful setting with excellent opportunities for taking photographs, sketching and painting – or you can just sit and enjoy the view!
