Join Chiltern Rangers and Wycombe Museum to learn more about the history of saw mills on the Wye!
Have a go at burning your own charcoal, and use it to get creative and make your own art. Historically, its waters attracted people to the valley and by 1816, more than 30 mills were dotted along the Wye, grinding corn into flour, ‘fulling’ cloth, making paper, and sawing wood from the surrounding Chilterns’ woodland. This event is part of a series celebrating the milling history of our town.
With with Chalk, Cherries and Chairs Landscape Partnership.
Join us for this family friendly day unlocking links to our shared heritage – Wycombe’s river, the river Wye, is the reason many of us are living in the town.
Tickets, timings and full details coming soon.
