Workers brought their families to settle close to the factories along the canal and a community was born. Inspired by the scenes portrayed in the stained glass windows which decorate the Halls, the guided walk locates the sites of a buzzing industrial and social Victorian post.</span><br /></span></p> <p><span><span>The walk is suitable for adults and families. Hands-on creative activities of designing your own 'stained glass' with acetate frames will be available for children (and/or adults!) along the way. Children under the age of 16 years must be accompanied by a supervising adult over the age of 16. </span></span></p> </div> </div> </div> </div>
