Half-Term

 

 

Visit the Ruddington Framework Knitters Museum and see Machine Knitting History brought to life.

Visit this Victorian time-capsule and see how the knitters lived and worked.

Step back in time. Come and see this unique complex of listed frameshops, cottages and outbuildings arranged around a garden courtyard, together with a former chapel in which many of the knitters worshipped. The site has been restored to show the living and working conditions of the framework knitters who occupied it throughout the nineteenth centuy. 

 Ruddington Framework Knitters' Museum is a small independent working museum, established by the efforts of the local community, which saved it from the bulldozer and put it under the control of a charitable Trust.
