THINGS TO DO AROUND US
Garstang is an attractive, popular, market town situated on the banks of the River Wyre and close to the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty from where the river springs.
Make a day of it, after a delicious pub meal and pint, head out to discover the historical gems that Garstang has to offer whilst wandering through historic buildings and mediaeval trials. Historic landmarks include Greenhalgh Castle and the old grammar school built in 1756, now the Arts Centre. In addition to the River Wyre, the Kendal – Preston Canal runs through part of the town. Originally constructed in 1791 for the passage of freight it is now a leisure amenity for pleasure craft, long walks and even fishing.
Local Area
Lancaster Canal
The Lancaster Canal, also known as the ‘Black and White’ canal, so-called because it carried limestone (white) and coal (black). Take a gentle stroll and immerse yourself in the historic surroundings. Be sure to keep an eye out for a variety of canal wildlife – you may even spot a kingfisher or heron.
Garstang Arts Centre
Set in the very heart of Garstang in Lancashire, Garstang Arts Centre is the focal point for local arts of all types, and home to Garstang and District Arts Society.
