Hats Houses History Trail

Hats, houses and the stories behind them

The Hats Houses History Trail invites visitors to discover hats, houses and the stories behind them.

Following the route, visitors uncover the history stop by stop, turning heritage into something to explore rather than just read about. It's a friendly, engaging way to bring the past to life for families, school groups and anyone with a curious streak.

Trails are a brilliant way to spread visitors across a site, encourage longer stays and give people a focus for their visit, all at their own pace.

The trail can be tailored to suit your venue and combined with our other heritage activities, such as Traditional Games and Art & Craft.

Every trail can be shaped around your site and the stories you want to tell, and it pairs brilliantly with History Alive, our live actor interactive trail, for a bigger heritage day. Tell us about your venue and audience and we'll help plan a route that works.

Get in touch and we'll tell you more about the trail and how it could work for you.

Ideal for Museums, heritage sites, councils, town centres, schools.
