n a warehouse to the rear of the Trolley Museum is a separate attraction dedicated to the history of firefighting in the state. The museum has less frequent opening hours, so it’s worth checking in advance, but the good news is admission is included in the Trolley Museum ticket price. What you’ll see is a rare repository of trucks and hand and horse-drawn firefighting equipment dating from 1850 to 1967. This is complemented by models and all sorts of memorabilia, from photographs to medals, historic life nets, flags, bells and uniforms.

We were in Manchester on our honeymoon and had seen this on a Google search as my husband is a firefighter we definitely put it on our Todo list for the weekend!
