Heritage Fleece Spinning
Just turn up — no need to contact anyone first.
Local spinners meet at the Folk and Costume Museum to demonstrate their craft and chat with visitors. There’s a spinning wheel for visitors to try, and a few tables and chairs in the courtyard. No booking needed: explore the museum and park and meet the spinners.
