Good morning. How can I help you?
I understand that the school organizes trips to different……
Yes, we run five every month: three during weekends and two Wednesday afternoon trips.
跑堂者What sort of places?
Well, obviously it varies, but always places of historical interest and also which offer a variety of shopping, becau our students always ask about that and then we go for ones where we know there are guided tours, becau this gives a good focus for the visit.

Well, we’re lucky here, obviously, becau we‘re able to say that all our visits are less than three hours drive.
How much do they cost?

Oh right, I’ll keep that in mind. And what are the times normally? We try to keep it pretty fixed so that, that students get to know the pattern.

We figure it’s best to keep the day fairly short.
Oh yes. And how do we rerve a place?
You sign your name on the notice board. Do you know where it is?
Ah ha. I saw it this morning.
And we do ask that you sign up three days in advance so we know we’ve got enough people interested to run it, and we can cancel if necessary, with full refund of cour.

Good afternoon everybody and welcome to Riverside Industrial Village. To start your visit, I’m just going to give you a brief account of the history of the muum before letting you roam about on your own.
I won’t keep you long. OK?
Now, from where we’re standing you’ve got a good view of the river over there.
And it was becau of this fast-flowing water, that this site was a natural place for manufacturing works.
The water, and the availability of the raw materials in the area, like minerals and iron ore, and also the abundance of local fuels, like coal and firewood, all made this site suitable for industry from a very early time.
Water was the main source of power for the early industries and some of the water wheels were first established in the twelfth century, would you believe?
At that time, local craftsmen first built an iron forge just behind the village here, on the bend in the river.
By the venteenth to eighteenth centuries the region’s rivers supported more than a hundred and sixty water mills-and many of the continued to operate well into the nineteenth century.
