See the world's only working steam powered weaving mill bring the past to life. A rare chance to re-live the days when steam ran the world!
This really has to be the most interesting industrial museum I've visited - everything from a steam engine to over three hundred restored weaving mills and the full story of how it all works from very informative guides. Fascinating (and super cheap too), I was there most of the afternoon it was so good.

Something new for the cafe to do a Sunday lunch. It was lovely. Plenty of food. The wait was a bit long but they were busy. They were still serving from the usual menu. There is a fantastic view from the upstairs. As always the horses are the highlight.

I went to see sound of music and it was really good. The staff were friendly and helpful when telling you where your seats are located and when the bar and toilets are during the interval. Burnley mechanics have a range of shows going on annually and I love it. I would highly recommend to all.

Gawthorpe Hall is a superb Jacobean historic house, nestled in the shadow of Pendle Hill, East Lancashire. Built between 1600 and 1605 for the Shuttleworth family it has an iconic and important role in the local area. On a visit you can see the original seventeenth century panelling and plasterwork in the Drawing Room; period Victorian rooms redesigned by Sir Charles Barry (architect of the Houses of Parliament) showing what life was like for the family in the 1890s and enjoy the splendour of the Long Gallery. The Hall also has fabulous furniture, paintings and the Gawthorpe Textile Collection displays on the first floor
