The watermill at Mapledurham was featured on the very first Black Sabbath album.
As Black Sabbath are performing their final concert on Saturday, 5th July in Birmingham, we’ve received numerous calls and emails enquiring about tours or photos of the watermill.
Please note that we do not offer tours of the watermill, and we do not provide any transport from Birmingham or elsewhere—you will need to make your own way to Mapledurham.
However, we can offer a 10-minute slot for external photographs only. This is by appointment only, Monday to Friday between 9:30am and 5:00pm. We are closed on weekends.
The cost is £10 per person.
