ELSECAR<br />

Shop<br />

around<br />

the Earl’s<br />

workshops<br />

This season, take a trip to Elsecar Heritage<br />

Centre, one of the north’s most unique<br />

shopping experiences, to enjoy a safe and<br />

relaxing day out for all the family.<br />

Over half a million people visit<br />

Elsecar each year to revel in its<br />

historical glory because, incredibly,<br />

almost all the original buildings<br />

built by the Earls Fitzwilliam in their<br />

industrial heyday remain today –<br />

albeit with widely divergent uses.<br />

The New Yard, built in 1850,<br />

once housed the workshops of<br />

engineers, blacksmiths, joiners,<br />

carpenters and other skilled workers<br />

from the Wentworth estate. But<br />

since the 1980s, the now Grade<br />

II* listed workshops have become<br />

a unique open-air shopping<br />

experience filled with a range of<br />

local independent retailers.<br />

On your next visit, you will find a<br />

variety of traders selling everything<br />

from women’s fashion and shoes to<br />

home and giftware and even sweets<br />

and beer.<br />

After all that shopping, take a<br />

break in one of the two cafes, both<br />

with indoor and outdoor seating.<br />

Stop for breakfast, enjoy a laidback<br />

lunch, or grab a drink and<br />

homemade cake. There is even a<br />

new ice cream parlour launching<br />

this summer.<br />

Over at the beer shop, they serve<br />

hand-pulled ales plus bottled beers<br />

and ciders from some of Yorkshire’s<br />

best-loved breweries. They also<br />

have wine, gin and alcohol-free<br />

drinks so whatever your tipple there<br />
