An in-depth look at the fossils we have on-site dating back 314 million years.

He will also talk about the important connection to the industrial heritage.

Approx: 45 - 55 Mins
Heritage Walking Tour
Find out about the Iron and Steel Industry that once thrived in Brymbo.
As you wander through the site you’ll get a descriptive tour providing you with information about the buildings we have still standing and some that have long since gone.
You’ll finish off with the chance to take a step back in time within our oldest building on site (the Agent’s House) with imagery and information about the industrial processes and life at the works.

Approx: 50 - 60 Mins
4X4 Tours
The 4x4 tour takes you out across to Lodge Valley Park to experience its historic development and current plans.

Extra Information
Parking:
There’s parking on-site and we’re looking to have more space available close by as overflow parking.
Toilets:
We have toilets on site in the main heritage area near our outdoor cafe
Card payments:
We can take card payments in our outdoor cafe.
Access:
We advise wearing walking shoes or trainers on site. In its current state the site still has many uneven surfaces, some level changes and inclines that make sections unsuitable for people with mobility difficulties. Rectifying these barriers is a key part of our restoration plans as part of Stori Brymbo. Meanwhile we advise contacting us to discuss further.
Pets:
We ask that all dogs/pets are kept on a lead at all times.
