5 things to do in Cheshire this week (20th - 27th October)

Searching for inspiration for what to do this week? We’ve put together a list of our top things to do or see across the county as we head into half term week and spooky season.

1) Total Stranger at Port Sunlight

Step inside the beautiful Bridge Cottage at Port Sunlight (Weds to Sunday) to discover an eye-catching exhibition of photographs by Francesco Mellina. Each photograph captures the Liverpool music and club scene in the late 1970s & early 1980s, including the early days of Dead or Alive’s Pete Burns who grew up in the village. It is the first time these unique images celebrating Port Sunlight’s own Pete Burns have been on public display. Entry is by pay what you think, where you decide the price and donate what you can. Every penny you give supports Port Sunlight Village Trust’s work to preserve and promote the special place. Find out more ->
