Museums & Attractions / Open Access
Open access sites are heritage locations you can explore freely, without needing to book or pay an entry fee, from abandoned mines and disused ironworks to viaducts and industrial remains left in the landscape. They're ideal for a spontaneous day out or a walk with a bit of history built in.
Check individual entries for access details, as some sites involve uneven ground or limited facilities.
