About

Hands-on Heritage

Come along to Larne Museum any time between 11.00 and 16.00 for a drop-in session exploring the built heritage and character of Larne.

We'll be demonstrating the 'In Your Area' app - a simple tool that helps people take the lead in documenting and mapping local built heritage. Using your phone or tablet, you can explore the town, add your own observations, and contribute to a collaborative online map of Larne's unique places.

Whether you stay for 10 minutes of two hours, everyone is welcome - no experience needed, just curiosity (and a smartphone if you have one)!
