Once again, the Cheshire salt towns were busy this Heritage Open Day!  This year the national theme for the day was  #TreasureYourTreasures , encouraging people to value the history of the places that form part of our own lives.  Photos of visitors to heritage attractions in the Saltscape were uploaded to Heritage Open Day’s Facebook page where they now take pride of place alongside other well- loved historic sites up and down the country.
