Mapping More Mischief
The different points can be visited as one route or individual sites of interest. To complete the walk as one route please allow 2.5 hours. Places to rest and pick up refreshments have been identified on the map.
The guided walk accompanies the Making More Mischief: Folk Costume in Britain exhibition. For more information on the exhibition and associated events visit the LCF Cultural Programme.
