Windmill Hill Flower Show began in 1884 at the Horse Shoe Inn, Posey Green.  In 1888 it moved to the cricket field at Windmill Hill Place.  The Show rapidly became a huge event, including sports, and attracting entries from far and wide. The shops would close for the day and people would attend in ‘gala garb’.

The Summer Show has continued, in various locations, to the present day, and moved to its present home when the Reid Hall opened in 1992.  You can see photographs of previous shows on our website:  www.windmillhillhortsoc.org.uk

The Show depends on the support of many members and friends, particularly on the Friday and the day of the Show.  If you can offer any help, such as setting up or transporting equipment, please contact the committee, or send a message to p.vasey@btinternet.com.

If you have never entered a show before, please do not feel you need to be an expert.  Just enter whatever you grow in your garden or make a cake.  With so many prizes available, you are likely to win something.  Classes in the children’s section are divided into three age groups.

Windmill Hill Horticultural Society will not be responsible for the loss or damage to any exhibits or personal property.
