Well done to all the team at Port Lympne! Yesterday I attended the opening ceremony for an exciting new visitor experience at Port Lympne Wild Animal Park in Kent. At the heart of the visitor experience is a new safari-style tour around the 600 acre site. For this people set off from ‘Basecamp’ on the backs of former army trucks. The trucks take you on an authentically bumpy track through the ‘African Experience’, where giraffe, water buffalo, gazelles, zebra (and a huge supporting cast of other beasts) roam freely across an enormous grassy escarpment with sweeping...

“Here, suspended in mid air, the fellows…cut out the ore in vast masses and tumble it with a thundering crash to the bottom” Rev W Bingley, 1801. We are delighted to announce that we won a four way pitch to work with Amlwch Industrial Heritage Trust and others to tell the remarkable story of the Parys Mountain copper mine in Anglesey. The new visitor centre, set within former ‘copper bins’ on the quayside at Amlwch, promises to become a major tourism attraction and catalyst for regeneration. This visual shows a proposed display which interprets the work of the ...
