FoPV Walk - The Lost Waterwheels of the Porter Valley

National Mills weekend is an opportunity to celebrate our national heritage of waterwheels and windmills. We mark the occasion with a walk to look afresh at the Porter valley and identify the sites of some of our lost waterwheels. We finish at Shepherd Wheel where the waterwheel still turns. Suitable for all ages. Approximately 2 hours.

Our walks leaders William Goldring (landscape architect who redesigned Endcliffe park post industrial decay) and Edward Shepherd (whose  grinding hull bears his name), aka John Gittins and Kevin Smith, will explain the waterpower heritage from Hunters Bar to Shepherd Wheel.

Tickets are free for FoPV members using the emailed discount code and £5 for non-members.

Children under 12 are free but must be booked.
