Group Visits

Immerse yourself at Coldharbour Mill as we bring the industrial revolution to life. Largely untouched since Victorian times Coldharbour today remains in production using heritage looms, wool spinning machines, power sources and machinery to produce beautiful yarns and textiles. Recognised by Historic England as one of the best preserved and important textile mill complexes in the country visitors can explore how introducing steam and water power proved to be the turning point in history – revolutionising not only production but every part of daily life.

Whether your group is interested in heritage, steam power, social history crafts or military history we can promise a visit that your group will love.
