Free Entry to the Mill exhibition

Take a free chance to visit Shrewsbury Flaxmill Maltings' Mill exhibition these Heritage Open Days. Learn all about the first iron-framed building, why it was built in iron, and the lives of the people who worked in the buildings both in its life as a flax mill and a maltings.

The history of Shrewsbury Flaxmill Maltings is full of connections. Initially supplies were first built to site via the Shrewsbury to Newport canal which passed right by the front of the building. This was replaced by the railways which started coming to site from 1855. Sidings even brought supplies right into the buildings via rail.

Free entry offer runs from Saturday 14 to Sunday 15 September inclusive. Booking is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
