National Tramway Museum, Derbyshire
The National Tramway Museum is the finest transport museum of its type, offering
an enjoyable day out for all ages and open most of the year. Located in the restored
Crich Tramway Village, nestling high up in the heart of Derbyshire overlooking the
famous Derwent Valley, this is a unique place to visit. Take a tram ride through
time on the vintage trams that run every few minutes, over the cobbled period street
complete with working pub, past the original facades of historic buildings before
heading up the valley to experience spectacular views. You even pay with an old
penny you are given on entry and then you are free to ride the trams all day, of
which there are over 70 vintage steam, electric and horse-drawn trams from all over
the world.
There is an exhibition hall with fascinating exhibitions dedicated to the history
of the tram, including a recreation of the 1905 Tramways Exhibition, plus there
is a Workshop Viewing Gallery where you watch trams being restored and repaired.
For children the indoor "Discovery Depot" with its ball pit and tram-themed soft
play area and the outdoor Adventure Playground will keep them occupied for hours.
A relaxing stroll along the Woodland Walk and Sculpture Trail is ideal for a picnic
or simply to enjoy the stunning views and fascinating sculptures. Refreshments are
offered at the Red Lion pub or Rita's Tea Rooms, whilst the Scothern & Williamson
Gift Shop is packed with souvenirs, toys, confectionary and books and Barnett's
Sweet Shop will appeal to the children!
For those who want to relax the Woodland Walk & Sculpture Trail is ideal, and there
are a wide range of monthly events held on the site such as the famous Transport
Extravaganza and weekend recreations of the 1940's and Edwardian Era. Whatever your
interest there is lots to see, explore and discover at the National Tramway Museum,
and Crich Tramway Village makes an ideal family day out in the heart of Derbyshire.
