Don't miss your chance to see Burnley's famous engine Peace powering Queen Street Mill's unique weaving shed.
We're back in steam for 2025! Join us for our special Steam Days where you can experience our original Lancashire Boiler and Steam Engine, Peace, running and bringing the mill back to its full glory.
The Engine will be demonstrated for 20 minutes every hour between 1pm – 3pm. This will give you the unique experience of seeing not only Peace herself working as she would have done over 100 years ago, but also our world-famous weaving shed back in action as well!
Peace drives a 16-ton flywheel that connects to the line shafts which drive the belts that would have powered over 300 looms.
Marvel in the noise and see what life would have been like for Lancashire's mill workers.
These Steam Days are perfect for anyone wanting a truly exceptional experience that will transport them back in time!
Please note:
The Engine will only be running on designated Steam Days and is not scheduled to run on other days for this season.
Please be aware that the mill can get very loud when our engine and looms are running, ear protection may be required if you have any sensitivity to loud and continuous noise.
Queen Street Mill is part of Lancashire County Museum Service and Lancashire County Council's Cultural Services.
