Hiking

This museum is dedicated to the Scottish explorer and missionary David Livingstone. It utilises a building called Shuttle Row, a former textile mill which once housed 24 families including Livingstone's, and where he was born on 19 March, 1813. These days, the mill is home to a 3,000-piece collection and is set in glorious estate parkland. For more information, visit: david-livingstone-trust.org.
