A Twist in the Tale -
New for 2025!
Whether at work or at home, rope was an essential part of life in times past. Join us to hear all about how and where it was made in Belper and the family that made it. More than five generations of the Kirklands worked the ropewalk owned by the Strutts, and built a strong business based on Bridge Street, becoming an important part of Belper's community.
This walk has been designed to be suitable for people with limited mobility and lasts one and a half hours with a rest stop part way through, finishing with the opportunity to purchase refreshments whilst you sit and hear the story's end. Unfortunately this walk is not suitable for mobility scooters due to the nature of the surface and a couple of steps.
Available dates: Thursday 24th April at 10.30am, Saturday 19th July at 10.30am and Tuesday 2nd September at 1.30pm

The special discounted entry price includes full access to the Great British Car Journey interactive museum, cafe and facilities.
Every car will also receive a commemorative metal plaque on the day, plus the chance to take part in our themed Great British Masters of the Marque awards in association with Wera Tools. All entrants will have the chance to win a glass trophy or Wera Tools sets.
To book your car in, message us here with your car registration number or, if you are a car club interested in attending, please email oliver@greatbritishcarjourney.com.

As individual as their builder, the kit car scene is still a thriving area of British automotive ingenuity. It wasn’t just about buying your Lotus as a kit to avoid paying purchase tax , as Clan Ginetta, Dutton and hundreds of other small volume producers were to prove. The car park may smell of uncured fibreglass resin but individuality will be much in evidence! Celebrate the Kit Car with us!
We are calling all owners of Kit cars to join us for our special Great British Masters of the Marque in association with Wera Tools event at Great British Car Journey.
Discounted entry of just £10 per person (save £8.50 for each person on usual on the day price) is available for advance tickets for ALL occupants of ANY qualifying vehicle attending on the day. The special discounted entry price includes full access to the Great British Car Journey interactive museum, cafe and facilities.
Every car will also receive a commemorative metal plaque on the day, plus the chance to take part in our themed Great British Masters of the Marque awards in association with Wera Tools. All entrants will have the chance to win a glass trophy or Wera Tools sets.
