What is There to Do?
Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet is a beautiful setting for a day out. As well as the fascinating buildings
and features of the site, there are activities and facilities to add to the enjoyment of your visit.
Information panels around the site will help you find your way around and tell you more about the
people who worked at Abbeydale and the jobs they carried out. We also have a handheld audioguide
available free of charge which will give you a wealth of information about the site. We also have
Trails for our younger visitors. To view and print our Activity Trails,

The Works Gallery at Abbeydale is a public exhibition area with displays and activities for you to find
out more about the Hamlet. Object and photograph displays, together with interactives, CD-Rom and
research folders with extra information provide something for everyone. There is plenty to touch and
handle, and Braille labels on all of the object and interactive displays.
You could also combine your visit to the site with one of our Living History Sundays -

If you are bringing a group of people, we can arrange a tour of the site for a small fee. Please contact
us in advance to arrange this.
Free access is available to the Gift Shop and Café at Abbeydale.
