Historical Walking Tour: Women in Engineering
Join the Riverside Volunteer Guides for a Doors Open Day walking tour.
This fascinating walk will take you from the Riverside Museum across the Clyde then on to Fairfield Museum in Govan.

The tour will meet at 11.15 at the Riverside information desk at its main entrance for check in and then set off at 11.30.
First, we will explore the engineering stories within the museum before crossing over the river to meet the women that made an impact in Govan.
The tour will finish at the wonderful Fairfield Shipyard Museum by 1pm where you can enjoy a tour of this iconic building and depart at your leisure.
As the walking tour is outside please dress for the weather and wear appropriate foot wear.
