Quarry Bank Mill & Styal Estate

Water power was the wonder of the late 18th Century and today you can see this technological breakthrough in action at Quarry Bank Mill. Award-winning galleries are devoted to water and steam power, with hands-on displays and exhibits, an 1830s Beam Engine and a Horizontal Steam Engine which steam daily.

Situated in over 384 acres of the beautiful countryside of Styal Country Estate, this remarkable Georgian museum is a valuable resource for learning more about our industrial and social heritage.
