The first mill in Carew dates from 1542. The current building probably dates from the early 19th century and has been restored by the National Park Authority, which leases the castle and tidal mill.

Carew Tidal Mill, lovingly restored by the Pembrokeshire National Park Authority, is a fine sight. The only restored tidal mill in Wales and one of only five in Britain, it's a rare thing indeed.

Evidence suggests there's been a mill on this spot since 1542, though the current building was constructed in the early 19th century. It ceased producing corn in the 1930s but was brought back to life when the National Park acquired it in 1984.

Great to get the old mill techniques explained. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time.
