The Windmill is now closed for the winter. It will open to the public every Sunday from
early May 2008 from 2.00 to
4.30pm until the end of August. Entrance costs £1 for adults and children
are free. A guide will be on hand to take you up into the mill to show you
around and to explain the fascinating history of one of the last mills of this
type in the country. The Windmill is on high open ground with fine views
to Knowlton Court to the east and Ramsgate to the north. It is also
situated on a circular walk taking in Chillenden, Rowling and Goodnestone.
When the Windmill is closed you are however still welcome
to visit the site and have a look around from the outside. There is an
information and interpretation board in the grounds.
(note: car parking limited. No toilets. Disabled access to
grounds and base of windmill only, but due to steep and narrow staircases access
is not possible to the upper levels)
Chillenden Windmill
was re-opened to the public on Sunday September 18th 2005 following a formal
handover ceremony by KCC on Tuesday 13th September. The mill collapsed during violent storms in
November 2003 and reconstruction works have been taking place ever since.
Please visit the news pages to find out more stories on
the rebuild.
For more information, please contact
Paul Allen the Mill Manager (01304 841970)
Chillenden Windmill is run by volunteers from the Friends
of Chillenden Mill Group, and is generously supported by KCC. The
Windmill is part of the
Kent Windmills Group.
