ELING TIDE MILL CAFE
By special arrangement with Eling Tide Mill Experience Manager Alison Foster and with support from the Cafe Manager and other members of the team, Totton Art Society began to exhibit a selection of affordable paintings for sale on the walls of Eling Tide Mill's cafe in May 2024. See posts about Eling at Totton Art Society's Blog.
The exhibition was set up on 30th April 2024 by T.A.S. Chairman Sue Canton and Helen Bartlett assisted by other T.A.S. members. The display is frequently refreshed and the cafe is open during the winter months from Wednesdays until Sundays 9.30 a.m. until 4 p.m. at 24 Lexby Road, Totton, Southampton SO40 9HF. Please see their website in December for the Christmas opening times. https://www.elingexperience.co.uk/opening-times
Totton Art Society also held the 2024 summer exhibition and sale of members' work in Eling Tide Mill Experience Visitors' Centre during August. There are photos on our blog.
The 'Eling Tide Mill Experience' is comprised of the Tide Mill, Visitors' Centre, St. Mary's Church, Eling Creek, Goatee Beach and local walks along the River Blackwater. There is a toll bridge between the tide mill and the car park on Eling Hill. Approaching Eling from Jacob's Gutter Lane would enable visitors to avoid a toll charge when parking.
