After a week of exploring the history of textiles, and the communities who made them, it's time to return to the modern day, and to the wonders of technology. Learn all about the industrial revolution, and join us on a family-friendly tour of the mill where you can get up close to the machines, and watch demonstrations of the different looms.
We'll also have lots of textile based crafts for you to have a go at including braiding, weaving and much more.
A unique and fun way to explore the history of textiles in an iconic heritage venue.
