Step back in time to Lancaster in the 1800s! Spread over five tiny floors, make yourself at home in this simply furnished house.
The Cottage is a fully immersive experience, where you’ll learn how people lived, try your hand at traditional crafts and household tasks. Help-out in the pantry grinding spices and learn how to use kitchen gadgets from bygone times. After you have experienced the hard work of a washday, settle down in the parlour and have a go at rag-rugging.
Upstairs, see where the family slept, the kinds of toys children played with, and discover how people coped without indoor toilets! Don’t forget to duck when you visit the cramped servants’ quarters in the attic.
Our friendly guide is on hand to answer your questions and demonstrate historic objects. Costumed interpreters add another dimension to the experience in the summer months.
