Canalside Heritage Centre, Canal Side, Beeston, NG9 1LZ

Open till 4 pm on each day, the Canalside Heritage Centre is a vibrant hub for visitors to enjoy and explore, with an enticing tearoom, welcoming gift shop and interpretation centre. Our garden is a tranquil space maintained by the community with fantastic views across the River Trent. The garden at the Canalside Heritage Centre is a biodiverse, healthy and productive garden, maintained by a dedicated group of volunteers and one which is brimming with many different types of fruits, vegetables, herbs, flowers, trees and shrubs that provide the ingredients for the many tasty cakes and soups on offer in the tea room. The garden is also designed to encourage a much greater variety of insects and wildlife and we have a beautiful Apiary providing us with yummy homegrown honey and beeswax throughout the year.
