Papplewick Pumping Station
One of the finest working Victorian water pumping stations in Britain. The site has undergone extensive restoration and once again stands proud as a spectacular example of Victorian craftsmanship.
Interested in Mills, then why not visit:-
Greens Mill Windmill
This is a working windmill that produces its own organic flour. You can see how the flour is made by climbing to the different levels of the windmill.
Tuxford Windmill
Great to take a guided tour and if the wind is right, you’ll see the sails-turning.

If you fancy trying your hand at knitting on a 19th century sock machine, then why not visit Ruddington Framework Knitters Museum.
