Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Ashton upon Mersey

"A post shared by Science and Industry Museum (@scienceandindustrymuseum). This free day out in Manchester is packed full of STEM fun for kids. Top Secret: from ciphers to cyber security is the museum’s latest exhibition."

"The People's History Museum is the national center for the collection, conservation, interpretation, and study of material relating to the history of working people in Britain. Located in a former pumping station, the museum showcases the history of British democracy and its impact on the population, as well as extensive collections of artifacts relating to trade unions and women's suffrage. Two other museums close by are the Manchester Jewish Museum, with its collection dealing with the city's Jewish community, and the Museum of Transport, with its many old buses and other vehicles belonging to the city transport services."

"A lavish £12 million has been spent on the redevelopment of the People's History Museum on the Left Bank. Hopes are high for a showcase of working-class history where highlights include early political pamphlets, the world's oldest trade union banner, exhibits relating to the Peterloo Massacre and the desk on which Thomas Paine wrote The Rights of Man. The rolling programme of exhibitions starts with Carried Away – a collection of photographs documenting more than 100 years of protest across Britain, from the suffragettes to the miners' strike.Contact: phm.org.uk"

"People’s History Museum is an interactive history museum documenting workers, politics and living conditions from the past 200 years. There is plenty for the kids to enjoy with lots of hands-on activities for all ages, from dressing up to playing shop in the Co-Op. With family-friendly trials, regular family events and for 3-6 years there are busy bee explorer packs."

"The Manchester Museum is a great stop particularly for those visiting the city as a family as the attractions here are suitable for all visitors to the city. It’s one of the best things to do in Manchester, especially if the weather takes a turn for the worse!"

"19th century museum with an eclectic mix of curiosities, from Egyptian artifacts to items on archery history to the skull of the world's oldest horse."

"For those who set eyes on Deansgate's The John Rylands Library for the first time, 'library' might not be the first word that comes to mind. This masterpiece of Victorian Gothic architecture looks more like a castle or cathedral. The library's collection includes the oldest known piece of the New Testament, the St John Fragment, as well as magnificent illuminated medieval manuscripts and a 1476 William Caxton edition of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales."

"Founded by brothers Ben and Joe Wright, there are now three Porta wine and tapas bars spread across the north-west, the latest of which opened in Salford at the end of 2018. The Iberian-influenced tapas – staples of jamón, croquetas and patatas bravas but also slow-roasted ox cheek, pickled walnuts and purple sprouting broccoli with romesco sauce – is complemented by a carefully curated selection of Spanish wines, cava, beer, sherries and vermouth."

"Tapas bar Porta started life in Altrincham, before setting up in Salford too and has been winning rave reviews in both locations. BBC Good Food praises Porta favourites that “conjure lingering flavours from apparently simple ingredients."

"AFFLECKS IS AN EMPORIUM OF ECLECTICISM, A TOTEM OF INDIE COMMERCE IN MANCHESTER’S NORTHERN QUARTER”. There are three main outlets inside Afflecks Palace which stock vintage clothing – catering for all types and styles, sizes and shapes. Afflecks has an extensive selection of different outlets from Punk and Goth, to a 100% vegan store!"

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. Tucked away from Warrington’s main town centre, where you will find all your standard high street shops and some small independent boutiques too, you will find Woolston Park. A wonderful way to spend a Sunday morning or sunny weekday after work, Woolston Park is a much-loved spot by local people."

"Excellent park for a decent length walk, plenty of wildlife along the way. There are many birds and a couple of foxes around dusk. There is also plenty of space and singing birds."
