HELMSHORE Textile Museum will open its doors to half-term fun and the waterwheel, fulling stocks and carding and spinning machines will all be up and running. Storyteller Heather Mason will also lead a series of story and craft workshops.

Catriona West, museum keeper, said: "A visit could liven up a couple of hours on an otherwise dull afternoon."

The museum will be open noon to 4pm, Sunday, February 23, to Saturday, March 1.
