Members of Nantwich Museum’s Research Group recently enjoyed an introduction to the restored Murgatroyd Brine Pumps at Middlewich by Heritage Officer, Kerry Kirwan and her team of volunteers. The group were able to view and were impressed by the, now unique, “nodding donkey” wild brine pumps. Restoration of the pumps is a remarkable achievement.
The site offers the prospect of a valuable heritage resource for generations to come.
The Trust is established for the preservation and promotion of the heritage of Middlewich (including buildings, artefacts and archives) as a resource for the benefit of the residents of Cheshire East, of Cheshire West and Chester, and of the wider public. Middlewich Heritage Trust is a not for profit organisation and welcomes volunteers from all walks of life in a number of different areas.
There are many ways to get involved with Middlewich Heritage and volunteers are a crucial part of what we do. For more information on how to become a volunteer please contact us.
