Stott Park Bobbin Mill

Reviewed By markaF791UT

An outstandingly well preserved mill where wooden bobbins were made for the UK weaving industry of the 19th and 20th centuries. Almost exactly as it was left when the mill closed, a guide takes you on a tour of the mill and demonstrates how bobbins were made in the millions. The tour includes working lathes and the truly spectacular original working steam engine that powered the mill. There is also a little shop where you can buy genuine antique bobbins.

Hope and Anchor

Reviewed By Tillybess - Ulverston, United Kingdom

One of the warmest, friendliest pub I've ever been in, from the big, joyous crowd on a music night to fundraisers for the local foodbank to quiet Sundays nattering in the garden. A pub run by big-hearted, funny, community-minded people who make the world a little warmer by creating this space.
