Also one cafe is dog friendly so able to sit in or outside depending on the weather and get a drink and something to eat. Also plenty of ice cream stalls to buy ice creams on a warm suuny day. Part of national trust so as a member free to get in and parking was free and loads of spaces. · via Google [Martin Arrowsmith](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/113874004526129782852/reviews) ★★★★★ Wonderful to see a working cotton mill in action.
