Outdoor trail - Oh no! The apprentices have hung their washing out to dry, but the wind has whisked it all away! As you explore the gardens and Mill Meadow, see if you can find all the giant pieces of clothing you can spot.

Mill indoor trail - the mice in the mill are helping us here and there. How many can you count? Find the answer in the Mill Yard Shop.
