The Watermill

The Watermill in the Bonne Terre Valley is one of the oldest surviving sites on Alderney. The earliest record of the Mill is circa 1236 with the present remains of a mill (now fully restored) rebuilt in 1796. The Mill and adjoining lands were given to the Alderney Society who continue to renovate and preserve this vital part of Alderney's history. 

The Watermill is well worth a visit any time of the day. The ancient machinery is regularly turned by water power and there is a working blacksmith's forge, along with excellent information boards.

The whole site is also available to the wedding celebrants for specialist weddings. 

Always open to the public

Admission: FREE
