Garlogie Mill Beam Engine & Turbine is open for Aberdeenshire’s Doors Open Weekend on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th, from 10am to 4pm.

Come along and see how we are getting on with the restoration. Entry is free (as are coffee, tea and biscuits) but donations are welcome.

Currently undergoing restoration by the members of the Garlogie Beam Engine Trust, Garlogie Mill (near Westhill) houses a historically significant 1830's Beam Engine. It is the oldest still in situ in Scotland and features the world’s oldest surviving cast iron rotative engine beam, an 1805 from Boulton & Watt. The mill also houses a substantial 1920s Hydroelectric turbine and high voltage generator plant.

There will also be a display featuring a steam lorry on Sunday 20th.
