Starting soon Nantwich Museum will run two special tours to celebrate the Festival of Archaeology 2025. On Wed 23 July we will take a walk with geology - a great introduction to how past settlements have used materials within the town. So, walk and explore the town’s architectural details you may never have noticed previously or realised the significance of. On Wed 30 July, we take a closer look at the Medieval under-belly of Nantwich. The town looked a lot different, but how different? Looking for clues in the landscape we’ll explore the old salt working area, walking past the ‘castle’ through to the heart of the trading area and Combermere Abbey’s lands, following the medieval route via Hospital St. These special tours are one off’s, and each is restricted to 14 people, so booking is important. £5 for members and £6 for non-members, to book phone 01270 627104, email learning@nantwichmuseum.org.uk, or online via https://nantwich-museum.arttickets.org.uk/ For more information about the Festival of Archaeology go to https://www.archaeologyuk.org/festival.html (fb)
