Explore the fascinating history of Barrow-in-Furness, and discover how it grew from a tiny 19th Century hamlet to the biggest iron and steel centre in the world, and a major ship-building force, in just 40 years.

There are daily programmed object handling tours and talks which explore the museum's collection with a chance to handle objects from World War 2, Victorian soap and find out what the Victorians did before they had television.
