short a <strong>to</strong>ur if a group continues <strong>to</strong> behave poorly or is acting in a dangerous manner. This<br />

is particularly important in the mine. (Thankfully, everyone enjoys themselves so much this<br />

is very rare!)<br />

7. Length of <strong>visit</strong>: We recommend you allow a good three and a half hours for your guided<br />

<strong>visit</strong> (this includes a half hour lunch break). We welcome you <strong>to</strong> stay longer if you wish <strong>to</strong><br />

explore the woodland, reservoirs and squirrel hide.<br />

8. Suitable clothing: <strong>Killhope</strong> is an open air site 1500 feet (450m) above sea level, and the<br />

weather <strong>can</strong> be bleak at any time of the year. Please ensure your group has suitable<br />

clothing – and waterproof coats if possible as you will be outside whatever the weather. As<br />

there are many uneven surfaces on site, your group will need suitable footwear. We <strong>can</strong><br />

supply welling<strong>to</strong>n boots for those <strong>visit</strong>ors without their own.<br />

9. We encourage a hands-on experience: <strong>Killhope</strong> is a worksheet free zone! Use our<br />

Resource Boxes <strong>to</strong> support your class – more information is included in this pack.<br />

10. HAVE FUN!!<br />
