High Corn Mill is just a stone’s throw from Skipton’s award winning High Street. One of the oldest buildings in the town, the mill is home to a fascinating taste of history along with a mix of quality independent shops, health, beauty and wellness services and businesses.
Visit The Waterwheel House, a free, fun and educational attraction for all of the family. Located within the heart of the building is the chance to see the water wheel and water turbine, which was installed six years ago as part of a £200,000 environmental initiative, generating power for the building and surrounding properties.
Open seven days a week, visitors can view see all the inner workings and get a close up view of the giant water wheel – “pull the handle to turn the wheel”.
Over the centuries, High Corn Mill has seen many changes and developments but it remains independently owned by a family business committed to maintaining its environmental integrity.
Ongoing renovation and restoration has transformed the ancient building into a delightful new community of thoroughly modern shops and businesses that ensure the mill remains as relevant to the town today as it has been for more than 600 years.
