About Greenfield Valley Heritage Park
Open the door to history at the Greenfield Valley Heritage Park.
Enter the industrial revolution museum and learn all about the lives of those who lived during this time and share in the stories of the local farming community from as far back as the early 19th century that focused on the cotton, copper and brass trading industries.
Out in the grounds children can enjoy the adventure tree house and swings, toddlers will love Tractor Heaven and the whole family can get lost in the Mega Tower Maze. If the weather is bad head inside to the soft play, or stay out and get wet as you explore one of the many nature walks around the valley.

An abundance to see and do!
Visit the Museum & Visitor Centre to discover our amazing history, from early beginnings as an Abbey, to the industries of the 19th Century.
The Greenfield Valley Museum opened in 1982 and developed around the agricultural buildings of the original Abbey Farm, which was a working farm until 1979. Buildings rescued from elsewhere in Flintshire were moved here to form an open air museum which included historic farmhouses and a Victorian school house.
The majority of the collections span a date range between 1850 and 1950 covering a variety of themes including agriculture, social history and the industrial history of the local area.
