'A VERY FRIENDLY GUIDE!' ✅️

Happy Monday! We've had rather a nice start to the week here at Lancaster Walks, Talks & Tours in the form of another 5🟢 review over on Tripadvisor!

Although the content of our public tours isn't always specifically aimed at children, we are really pleased that some of our younger patrons still find them enjoyable too! 🧙‍♀️

Many thanks to Eva [and daughter] for their kind feedback! 🙂

🎂 Happy birthday, Sir Thomas Storey!

Born on this day in 1825, Thomas Storey rose from modest beginnings to become one of Lancaster's greatest industrialists. His oilcloth & table baize business made him one of the town's biggest employers.

Four times Mayor of Lancaster and knighted in 1887, he rebuilt the town's old Mechanics Institute to mark Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee. The Storey, as it is now known, is still a busy landmark on Meeting House Lane today.

Keen to learn more about Storey & his legacy? We have a talk AND a tour in our portfolio for interested groups. Feel free to drop us a line. 🙂
