Next Stop: Eccles

In Great British Railway Journeys on BBC 2, Michael Portillo takes to the tracks with a copy of George Bradshaw’s Victorian Railway Guidebook. In a series of four epic journeys, Portillo travels the length and breadth of the country to see how the railways changed the public, and what of Bradshaw’s Britain remains.

In this episode we welcomed him in to our factory where had a go at folding a Real Lancashire Eccles Cake.
