Learn about the properties of gunpowder with our re-enactors and see examples of a 17th century cannon and muskets being fired. BEWARE the bangs are loud. Ear Defenders are available for those with aural sensitivities. Younger visitors can get stuck into some themed craft activities, a fun trail, and help us to catch the dastardly Guy Fawkes.
