Just a quickie as expecting visitors – made it to the Industrial Hamlet living history day yesterday. Rather disappointed by the fact they’d closed the carparks (I had to parallel park!) and the fact that the site is pretty much inaccessible to buggys. If I’d known that in advance I’d have planned to sling ds and carry a lot less stuff, but there you go. We thoroughly enjoyed the blacksmith and sweet making, plus playing with the victorian toys and dd enjoyed the works gallery.
