The Magic Attic

Local History - Local Heritage - from Local Folk

Registered Charity No 1094124

Magic Attic Heritage Walks take place monthly between April and October. They cover both urban and rural environments varying in distance and usually not more than 5 miles.

Supported by images from the archive, there are interesting stories to tell about local characters, landscape change and the history of local places.

We aim to show you hidden corners of the district that you may not have visited before.

All walks are guided, risk assessed and have a back marker in attendance.

There are no restrictions on numbers or a need to book in advance.

If medical assistance is required the leader and casualty will wear masks while first aid is given. CPR will be compression only.
