The Loco Works Carriage and Wagon Shed closed its doors in 1969, but now houses the Garioch Heritage Centre. The listed building lay abandoned until its award-winning conversion in 2017. It is still possible to see some of the tracks, cranes and massive tram doors. Inside there is a scale model of the site and exhibitions on how local people lived and worked in the area from 1900s onwards, including “the Colony” houses, built to home the influx of workers from the Tait Paper Mill.

A self-guided tour is available, with staff on hand to answer any questions. Great venue for children with a “beastie hunt”, puzzles and dressing up.

Parking on street - directly in front of main entrance.

Refreshments can be purchased in café.
