Book NowLudlow is a thriving market town - an architectural gem with a lively community feel, Ludlow bustles with events and festivalsthroughout the year. Perched on a cliff above the River Teme, Ludlow is surrounded by the unspoilt and beautiful hilly countryside of south Shropshire and the Welsh border country, known as the Welsh Marches.
Daniels Mill and it's impressive waterwheel have been carefully restored to it's former glory.
The watermill is virtually unaltered since the 18th Century and still in the ownership of the same family for over 250 years.
Daniels Mill is a fully working watermill set in the idyllic Shropshire countryside, deep in a wooded valley crossed by the 19th century viaduct carrying the Severn Valley Railway to Bridgnorth.
Visitors to this tourist attraction are taken back in time when the mill wheel turns and a steam train from the Severn Valley Railway crosses the viaduct at the same time.
See wheat being turned into flour by the heavy millstones in the traditional way used for centuries and experience the sight and sounds of yesteryear.
There are walks around peaceful pools and the old mill ruin with conducted tours for all visitors to the mill.
Find out about the history of Daniels Mill and the restoration that has been carried out to bring it back to it's former glory.
