Shugborough Working Estate

posted by triplecrown on 2 June 2009 at 05:46

This is a historically accurate estate and working farm. You can explore a cheese factory and see the servants quarters. They have a walled garden and more. It is a great place to get a look at how things were done long ago.

Industrial Museum

This is a museum on the grounds of Wollaton Hall, which is in itself a destination. The exhibits of the industrialization of the area for textiles as well as trains is interesting and very well done. It is informative.

The Museum of Nottingham Life at Brewhouse Yard

posted by SuzyQ on 7 May 2009 at 17:36

This is a charming historical site that is well worth a visit, since it quickly introduces you to the historical changes in Nottingham over the last 300 years. The Museum is housed in five 17t Century structures (they call them cottages, but they are really much larger). The Museum tells the story of what Nottingham used to be like in its heyday, when there were more houses and a thriving industrial base. A series of man-made caves is cut into the rocks that connect the structure, which is very interesting, especially to youngsters, who feel they are on a secret trip. If you visit the Museum, your ticket will also allow you entry to Nottingham Castle, which is close by. I like this type of attraction since it gives you a sense of history in a short amount of time. It really accentuates the feeling of living in Nottingham.
