Family Days Out in Bolton
|
Why not take a family day out and visit Bolton, a town with a long and varied history and famous for its cotton industry that contributed so much to industrial revolution in England. In fact it was here in Bolton that the ‘Spinning Mule’ was invented in 1779 by one Samuel Crompton, thus revolutionising the Revolution! The cotton trade has long since vanished from the city but you can learn all about its impact on local history at the Bolton Museum with its extensive archive. And if that feels a little dry for the younger ones never fear because the same building houses both an art gallery and aquarium that’s sure to keep them all entertained! Those wanting to know more about Bolton will also enjoy the Hall i’ th’ Wood Museum, a Tudor House with beautiful surrounding grounds perfect for a picnic stop on your day out . |
