A Twist in the Tale - Belper Ropemakers Heritage WalkOverview

New for 2025!

Whether at work or at home, rope was an essential part of life in times past. Join us to hear all about how and where it was made in Belper and the family that made it. More than five generations of the Kirklands worked the ropewalk owned by the Strutts, and built a strong business based on Bridge Street, becoming an important part of Belper's community.

This walk has been designed to be suitable for people with limited mobility and lasts one and a half hours with a rest stop part way through, finishing with the opportunity to purchase refreshments whilst you sit and hear the story's end.  Unfortunately this walk is not suitable for mobility scooters due to the nature of the surface and a couple of steps.

Available dates: Thursday 24th April at 10.30am, Saturday 19th July at 10.30am and Tuesday 2nd September at 1.30pm
