Free museum (leave a contribution on leaving) which gives you a good idea how people used to live in the good old days. Certainly worth a visit if you're in the area.

When the sun is shining and you pop your earphones in and take a walk along Belton hill up top, it’s not overly long but the views and nature are breath taking, along with some furry friends popping out along the way. Benches are placed along your walk so you can sit and take it all in whilst catching some rays. We do have some beautiful views in Leigh the estuary and old Leigh with all the boats are just so worth just sitting and taking it all in.

Love Leigh library gardens, it’s one of those few charming places that are still around. Very tranquil and still has that old time period factor, attChilling relaxing,just sitting in there is glorious. Took my niece, when the weather was warm, we grabbed a sandwich, a cake and a drink from the homemade bakery opposite, just sat there and took in all the surroundings attached is the elegant Leigh library building which stands looking magnificent. We Looked at the plants and wildlife, watch the squirrels explore, then had a little explore ourselves, attached is a little park with swing etc, placed a rock for others to find and all whilst taking in the glorious sea view, it’s just a beautiful place to visit.
