Take in the panoramic views from the original mill windows and come face-to-face with the huge Potts clock which once greeted holidaymakers to the Morecambe Promenade railway station in the early twentieth century. Meanwhile the Power House Galleries are home to a whole host of small and large engines, and the Mill Managers Cottage shows what life would have been like for those living and working in the mill during Victorian times. There's also an impressive collection of printing presses and film equipment in the Media in the Mill Galleries.
