About Bats About Gawthorpe - National Trust: Gawthorpe Hall, Padiham
The grounds and buildings of Gawthorpe are really important for the number of bats that live here.
On this guided walk you can find out about the different species, their habitat and lifestyle, then you can go hunting for them using the latest sound detectors with our local expert and 'batman' Roger Cunliffe. These creatures have a fascinating life and are more common than you may realise, so why not come along to find out more.
Bring a torch as it will be dark, wear sturdy footwear and dress for the outdoors as this event is outside and follows unsurfaced paths.
Meet at the front of Gawthorpe Hall.
Booking essential - £5 adults, £3 children.
