Description

Stairfoot Station Heritage Park group has been formed to commemorate and celebrate the rich Industrial Heritage and Culture of the Stairfoot basin. This area in the last century was an important centre of industry and commerce comprising of:

  • Linen Industries
  • Railways
  • Mining
  • Glass Industry
  • Canals
  • Brickyards
  • Tar Distilleries

The station, which was sited in the Stairfoot area of the TransPennine Trail, was a major distribution hub of communication for the transport of the many commodities produced from within the area. We arrange environmental and history days throughout the year.

If you enjoy local history or have a story to tell us about your knowledge of this unique area, we’d like you to join us.


Opening Times

3rd Tuesday in the month at 7pm.
