We went to the Greenbank Mill, once apon a time ago a working mill where the Green bank family bought wheat and milled it with a gigantic stone mill powered by a water wheel. The Greenbank family also raised sheep, sheered them, spun there own wool and made textiles for sale.
My kids got to separate the wool and rake it into strands and them give it to the tour guide (dressed in old fashioned atire) where she would spin it into wool strands and then each of the kids got to weave. The kids fed the sheep and Arden dressed up like a 18th century girl.
