One Sunday we were all sat around in the morning and we said "lets go out" "But where?" was the cry.

We ventured forth and ended up at Quarry bank Mill at about 12.00 and found a van in the car park inviting us to join the national trust.

Well I must have had a funny turn as I got a family membership for £57.00 for the year, and ventured forth down the track to the mill.

When we got to the entrance, we were asked if we would also like to do the apprentice house tour, which I must say was extremely realistic and had my 8 year old in tears when he was told he was just the right age to stay!

After that (about 1 hour) we went to the mill itself, and it was fantastic! Various working looms and steam engines etc along with NT volunteers to explain it all.

A brilliant day for about £17 for family (unless Nat Trust then free)

Quarry Bank Mill & Styal Country Park - review by Shekera

Advantages: Loads to keep you interested and a lot to learn.
Disadvantages: Probably too much to take in during one trip - most definately need to visit more than once.
