Stott Park Bobbin Mill was built in 1835 but ceased its commerical operations in 1971. It has been preseved as it was in Victorian times. Here you can learn about the machinery, the techniques that were used, and much more. You can see a demonstration of how bobbins were made and learn about their uses that went beyond just supplying the Lancashire cotton trade. A tour of the mill lasts approximately 45 minutes, and there are display boards in out-buildings that can be viewed at your leisure. There is also a small shop on the site.
