  • ✨ English Tourism Week 2026: The Story of Wymondham Windmill 🌾 Step back in time at one of the region’s most charming heritage gems - Wymondham Windmill, a stunning five-story tower mill built around 1813–1814, crafted from local ironstone and topped with brick. It originally turned with six patent sails, a rare “Six Arm Lincolnshire Cross” design still seen on only a handful of mills across the UK. For more than a century, the mill ground corn - first by wind, later by an oil powered engine - before milling stopped in 1952 and cattle feed production continued until 1960. Today, it stands as one of the country’s remaining six sailed mills and a beautiful reminder of our rural past. Thanks to dedicated restoration efforts, including a major phase in 2016 supported by European and Lottery funding, the windmill has been lovingly brought back to life. Visitors can now explore a 7 acre site featuring a tearoom, wild woodland, boutique shops, and the restored tower itself - welcoming thousands of visitors a year. 💬 Have you visited Wymondham Windmill?

✨ Celebrating English Tourism Week 2026! 🌟 This year, we’re shining an even brighter spotlight on the Borough of Melton — a place where every visit helps local people, supports independent businesses, and strengthens the vibrant heart of our community. Whether you're planning a spring escape, a foodie adventure, or a day out discovering somewhere new, Melton has so much waiting for you in 2026. Throughout the week, we’ll be highlighting some of our favourite Hidden Gems — from welcoming cafés and artisan producers to peaceful walking routes, cultural spots, and experiences you won’t find anywhere else. Every one of them plays a role in growing our local economy and celebrating what makes Melton unique. #EnglishTourismWeek26 #visitleicester #HiddenGemsUK #meltonmowbray
