The SPAB Mills Section has been working to preserve mills since 1927.

Mills Open, published in 8 editions between 1981 and 2007, lists the result of this fight - around about 450 mills which have been saved, and are open to the public in Britain. The later editions included web-sites and email contact details for as many entries as possible. When it became uneconomic to produce a paper edition, the information was available via a website, but that is sadly no longer maintained.
