About This Event

Bugs and Beasties Detective Trail is an outdoor event in Stockport where participants hunt for insects around Lyme House, learn how they affect objects, and visit the Long Gallery to solve cases of mysterious damage.

Hunt for bugs and beasties around the house while discovering how we care for Lyme's historic collections.

Step into the secret world of the insects and creatures that live at Lyme House. Follow our Bugs and Beasties Detective Trail to uncover where they hide, learn how they affect the objects in our care, and discover the ways we protect the house and its collections.

Then head to the Long Gallery, where you'll investigate objects that have been nibbled, chewed, and damaged by mysterious beasties. Can you work out who the creepy crawly culprits are and solve the case?
