Rainy day activities

Step back in time at Ordsall Hall

Explore one of Salford’s most historic buildings at Ordsall Hall.

First recorded in 1177, the Grade I listed manor house is now home to hands-on exhibitions and immersive room settings that bring centuries of history to life.

Walk down a Victorian street

Head to Salford Museum & Art Gallery and discover its collections, exhibitions and the much-loved Lark Hill Place Victorian street.

While you’re there, don’t miss Your Salford 100, the museum’s special centenary exhibition.

Head to Lowry

There’s always something to discover at Lowry, from theatre and family shows to exhibitions at Salford Quays. Check what’s on before you visit.

Visit your local library

A library is always a good rainy-day option. Find a new book, spend some time reading together or check what activities are happening at your nearest Salford library.
