Farfield Mill is a restored Victorian woollen mill in a quiet corner in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The mill building is an interesting example of 19th-century industrial architecture, with its thick stone walls and riverside setting. It has been carefully restored to keep its historical character while making space for artists and visitors today.
