Eskdale Mill & Heritage Trust

Eskdale Mill & Heritage Trust (EMHT) is a registered charity.

Since 1976, Eskdale Mill has been open as a visitor attraction for public enjoyment.

In 2006 EMHT bought Eskdale Mill from Cumbria County Council.

EMHT was formed by local people who wanted to preserve the mill as a historic building open to the public. The Trust is dedicated to the continued operation of the mill as part of its preservation and development for public benefit, and to promotion of the history, heritage, geography and geology of Eskdale.
