Step back in time this summer

Posted by Greg Throughton


Families with Morco caravan water heaters looking for inspiration for a day of fun can step back in time at a host of upcoming events.


At Summerlee, the Museum of Scottish Industrial Life in Coatbridge, the whole family can enjoy living the life of a Victorian for a day on Sunday July 17th.


Visitors can take part in a traditional fun-fair, Punch and Judy shows and fairy hunt in the museum's grounds.


Furthermore, game family members can take the chance to have a Victorian-style family portrait taken, see working machinery and try their hand at some games from the era.


Alternatively, those seeking to step a little further back in time should take a trip to Scotland's Festival of History at Lanark Racecourse on August 20th and 21st.


More than 400 re-enactment specialists will bring to life the bygone days of the Romans and Vikings, as well as Scottish greats like William Wallace and Robert the Bruce.
