THE SALT MUSEUM
The Salt Museum is situated on London Road on the way into Northwich from the Manchester Road (A556). The museum is housed in part of Weaver Hall, built in 1837 as a workhouse. It tells the story of salt working in Cheshire since Roman times. It is Britain's only salt museum - with original artefacts, models, reconstructions and audio-visual programmes, the history of the salt industry is brought to life.
