Archive hosts autumn Mills Section meeting
On November 26th 2011 we provided free facilities to the Mills Section of the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) to run its regular autumn meeting for members. We were pleased that some 76 people attended to hear the lectures and, in many cases, make their first visit to the Archive. A more detailed account may be found on our Mill writing page.
Six entries received for research competition
We have received six valid submissions for our first research prize competition. Completed manuscripts must now be received by the judges by 31st May 2012 and the winners will be announced by 31st July 2012. Entries will be judged by a panel comprising two trustees from the Mills Archive Trust together with one 'lay' member with mill expertise appropriate to the subject matter. The panel's decisions are final. More information.
