PRESTONPAN­S

-

You’ll find a mine of informatio­n at Prestongra­nge Museum.

Coal was first extracted from this site 800 years ago and, by the 19th Century, mining had supported salt-making and the manufactur­e of bricks, clay-pipes, soap, and even beer and glass.

Remnants of these integrated industries can still be seen today. This museum offers tons of fun for the kids and tours are only £2.70.
