Starting as the Castlemaine Woollen Mill in 1875, and finishing as Victoria Carpets in 2013, The Mill is a place for food and artisan manufacturing, a part of Castlemaine’s vibrancy.
On-site in our food precinct are individual small businesses: café, coffee roastery, wine, ice-cream, bread, beer, smallgoods manufacturer, chocolates – and more.
Our artisan makers precinct includes furniture makers and restorers, jewellery, bath soaks and fragrances, soap and other makers plus a knife maker – and more.
Our vintage precinct – home of Castlemaine Vintage Bazaar and Platform No. 5, offers stallholder market-style spaces to sell vintage, re-purposed, hand-made and second hand goods.
There are artists-in-residence in quirky art spaces and small business offices.
