If you have 2-3 hours to spend in town, here are some suggestions:
- Visit Portland Basin Museum (1-2 hours) - learn about the history of the area and admire the exhibitions
- Walk along the canal (1-2 hours) - enjoy the scenery and perhaps stop for a drink or lunch at one of the cafés or pubs along the way
- Explore Cheetham Park (1-2 hours) - take a stroll around the gardens, play some tennis or golf, and relax by the lake
- Go shopping at Ashton-under-Lyne market (1-2 hours) - browse the stalls for fresh produce, clothes, and souvenirs
- Visit the Tameside Hippodrome Theatre (1-2 hours) - check out the latest shows and performances
Choose one or combine a few for a fun and memorable afternoon!
