Discovering Moira Furnace Museum and Country Park – Voyagevista9.com


Located in the heart of the National Forest, Moira Furnace Museum and Country Park is a great destination for history enthusiasts, nature lovers, and families alike. This remarkable site, rich with industrial heritage, offers a unique blend of history, natural beauty, and outdoor activities, making it an ideal day out or a perfect stop on a longer trip through Leicestershire.

We discovered Moira Furnace Museum and Country Park on my birthday while looking for an interesting place to visit with our family and the dogs. Once we’d found out how much there was to enjoy and that it’s very dog friendly too, we made up our minds to make it the destination to start our day.

My husband and three of our grown up kids came out for the day, plus our young grandson.  Smokey our son’s dog and Bandit came along too.

Let’s take a closer look at the history of Moira Furnace, the facilities available at the museum and country park, parking and accommodation options, and other local attractions to explore in the area.
