The experience

About this day out

The Ropewalk Museum pays tribute to the history of the rope-making factory Hall's Barton Ropery, whose 'walk' dates back to between 1800 and 1803. Housed in the Grade II listed building of The Ropewalk arts centre, which stretches a quarter of a mile along Barton Haven, the Accredited Museum contains displays, artifacts and memorabilia associated with the factory and its workforce. Its growing archive of artifacts, literature and photographs documents the ropery from its eighteenth-century origins to its closure as a business in the latter half of the twentieth century.
