About Company
Sturminster Newton Mill is a Historical landmark located at Newton Hill, Sturminster Newton DT10 2DQ, United Kingdom.
Sturminster Newton Mill is open 26th March - 29th September each year, on Mondays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Sturminster Newton Mill is one of a series of ancient flour mills built on the River Stour. It is thought that there may have been a mill on this site in Saxon times and there is evidence that a mill existed in 1016. The Mill is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. The south wing, which sits firmly on the river bank, was last rebuilt c.1650 on a centuries-old site. The north wing, which juts out into the river, was originally a completely separate fulling mill built in 1611. It was demolished in the late 18th century and rebuilt in brick on its original stone base to join with and extend the grain mill.
