Snuff Mills, Historic park with mill ruins in Fishponds, United Kingdom
The park extends along the River Frome with woodland paths, meadows, and the remains of an 18th-century mill building near the water.
During the 1700s, the mill ground tobacco into snuff powder, utilizing water power from the River Frome to operate its grinding mechanisms.
The park functions as a community meeting point where residents participate in guided nature walks, educational programs, and seasonal outdoor activities.
Visitors can access two parking areas, with fees ranging from £1 for one hour to £3 for five hours between 9am and 6pm daily.
The site contains designated fishing spots along the River Frome and connects to the extensive Frome Valley Walkway network for extended hiking experiences.
