LATEST NEWS FROM THE FARM
Lambing has begun early and already we have new arrivals at the farm

ABOUT THE FARM
Georgian dairymaids, miller and authentically dressed farm staff welcome you to the Farmstead, built by world famous architect Samuel Wyatt and celebrated across the country as the perfect country house farm.

Our maids will show you the very latest technology (early 19th century, of course!) in our dairy where butter and cheese is produced to feed the estate workers and to send to market. William Bailey, our Georgian miller, will gladly show you his pride and joy – the only working water mill of its kind in the country.

The mill wheel is larger than a modern double decker bus and is powered by water from our idyllic mill pond. When the mill wheel starts up, the whole building shakes as wheels turn and mill stones grind to produce fine wholegrain flour.

The scents of freshly made warm bread drift from the scullery as the bailiff’s wife, Mrs Wheelock, busies herself baking delicious wholesome food.

Rare and historic breeds of livestock, some rarer than the Giant Panda, roam the parkland just as they did 200 years ago.

OAK TREE FARM UPDATE
A large group from Oak Tree Farm came to spend the day at the farm late this summer, to celebrate the end of another full year of work that members from the project have undertaken with us this year.  See more here including pictures.
