Walking tour with cream tea
Enjoy an informative and engaging walking tour of the areas surrounding the picturesque Sarehole Mill, one of only two surviving working watermills in Birmingham. In an area once called Sarehole, the mill is on the River Cole in Hall Green, Birmingham
There has been a mill on this site since 1542, but the current building dates from the mid-18th Century. In the 1850s a steam engine was installed and a chimney built, which provides Sarehole Mill with its distinctive silhouette.
When your group visits Sarehole Mill, we will explore the grounds and the mill pond, a favourite spot for wildlife in this peaceful location. You will also be able to hear about the mill - its history , its owners, how it has changed over the years and how we use it today.
We’ll also take you to the neighbouring Moseley Bog, not only was this area the inspiration for the famous stories of J.R.R. Tolkien, it’s a fabulous haven for nature and wildlife. With wooden boardwalks over the natural habitat, it is one of the city’s hidden gems.
We can accommodate groups of 12 – 15 people for a fascinating experience that will last around two hours. After an informative and exciting guided walking tour, you will have a cream tea either in the courtyard or in one of our covered spaces.

- An introduction to the mill
