The sunshine brought visitors to the celebrations of Real Bread Week, where they could make their own bread dough with expert bread maker and inspirational food demonstrator, Linda Hewett.

Using Cogglesford Watermill’s own stoneground flour, visitors were able to mix and knead their own mixture before developing it into a smooth bouncy dough ready to take home and bake to enjoy with family and friends.
