Visitors to the Forge are offered a guided tour of the restored forge and of the Industrial Museum.
The tour starts in the Forge where the visitors can see how the it worked and hear about the history of the Forge and the worker’s living and working conditions. The waterwheels are run (conditions allowing). After visiting the Museum Room, Victorian Kitchen and the Laundry, the tour then moves to the “Foundry” which house our collection of working machinery and steam engines.
Our collection of working machine tools will be demonstrated.
Our collection of stationary steam engines will be demonstrated, using compressed air.
A Sunday visitor to Top Forge in the autumn has used his video camera to good effect. Mr Gregos Jezewski has sent us three You-tube references for Christmas.
