The Mill at Sonning Theatre
Sally Hughes

The present mill at Sonning dates from the 18th Century but it ceased milling flour in 1969. Tim and Eileen Richards transformed it into a theatre, which opened in 1982. Sally Hughes, their daughter, now runs it. She will explain how, with its popular theatre/dining format, The Mill welcomes returning audiences and has won awards
