Wednesday 18th September was an amazing day at Ribblehead with clear skies and a fantastic group of visitors. Many arrived for our morning introduction to the history of the railway build at Ribblehead The viaduct tour and fossil hunt was a big success before we headed over land in the afternoon. The shanty site is a discovery walk into the hard life of the railway builders. it was a tough place to live work and play: Many struggled and moved on whilst others became reluctantly homeless when the work completed.
A very memorable end to our season thanks to all visitors and the knowledgeable Footsteps in Time team .The visitor centre remains open until the end of October.
We are planning a few changes for you next season Our programme of free events will start Easter 2025.
