Unravelling Barton Ropery Education Pack

The heritage project has created an education pack to support interpretation of the Ropewalk by schools. The pack includes activities for KS1 and KS2 to use on site at the Ropewalk as well as in the classroom.

Onsite activities include a self guided tour of the site of the rope factory supported by teacher’s notes.

The pack of classroom resources covers a wide range of curriculum subjects including history, literacy, science and geography. The five sections of the pack each look at a different aspect of the site and its heritage and are designed to fit in with national curriculum programmes of study. The activities support the new heritage exhibition at the Ropewalk, about rope making in Barton.
