Green's Windmill and Science Centre
Windmill Lane, Sneinton, United Kingdom
This working windmill is the only inner city windmill in the UK, producing award winning spelt and wheat flour. Paired with the George Green Museum and Science Centre the site provides a fun and free day out for the whole family. Green's Windmill and Science Centre is now managed by the Green's Windmill Trust (Charity No. 1145901) Built in 1807 by a Nottingham baker, this windmill was inherited by his son George, who would later become a famous mathematician. After a period of neglect the mill was restored and reopened in 1985, with milling starting again in 1986. Today the site has become a vibrant area of entertainment and discovery. Buy award winning organic flour from the volunteers in the shop and find out about the workings of the mill from the miller. Learn about Green's Theorem and try to solve the puzzles in the Science Centre. Follow one of the trails or join in an activity. There's something for all the family!
