We have booked a tour around this newly restored museum for the morning of 28 April.
The Lion Salt Works is a restored historic open-pan salt making site,
in the village of Marston, close to Northwich. The site lies adjacent
to the Trent and Mersey Canal, close to Weaver Hall Museum and
Workhouse, and the historic Anderton Boat Lift.
This £10.23 million project opened in June 2015 offering a
fascinating journey through the life of the country’s last open-pan salt
making site.
Follow Lion Salt Works link to see more details.
The museum opens at 10:30 so there is an opportunity for coffee before our tour at 11:00. The tour should take just over an hour and then there will be a chance to browse.
We could either have lunch in the Museum cafe or in the Salt Barge pub.
The cost will depend upon numbers but will be approximately £8.
It's about a 30 min drive to the Works. I am sure members can 'car share' as appropriate.
We need to confirm numbers by 8 April. Please could people let me (paul.bujac@virgin.net) know if they will be joining us and whether they want lunch. Please indicate cafe or pub.
