Dear all,
It is with great sadness that I write to tell you that Peter passed away peacefully at his home on Saturday, 16th March.

Due to the devastating fire of 22nd January 2022, the Visitor Centre at Frogmore Paper Mill had to be demolished. Far from being a modern addition to the site, the former cafe, shop and museum were housed in the mill’s former storage sheds, constructed in 1880s and 1904.
