Venue Hire
Flooded with natural daylight and views across the Rossendale Valley, the space is well suited to working closely with colleagues or clients, offering an inspiring space to help fuel new ideas and creative thinking.
Due to its recent redevelopment the museum now offers traditional and modern spaces including an outdoor courtyard and we are always more than happy to organise guided tours of one of our celebrated galleries.
The museum is also set in its own park which gives delegates the opportunity to breakaway and explore during breaks.
