Worksop walk from Mr Straw's House

The Straw Family were heavily involved in the local community and the town. Every Sunday the brothers, William Jr and Walter took a turn through this market town, to check on the places they owned, the business and to get a bit of fresh air. Take a walk in their footsteps and discover some of the fascinating history of this small town.
