Shipley Glen and Tramway details...

One of the interesting places to go with the kids is the popular Shipley Glen Cable Tramway.

One of the oldest working cable tramway in Great Britain dating from 1895, the line was built to serve the local beauty spot of Shipley Glen.

The quarter-mile woodland ride provides a pleasant alternative for little legs. A short walk brings the cafe within reach plus the rocks and woods of Shipley Glen.

The museum at the bottom station displays photos and memorabilia of the tramway. Look out for special events at Halloween and Christmas Santa specials. See the website for seasonal opening times and return fare prices. There is car parking at top and bottom stations.
