Biggar Gasworks Steam Days offer the public the chance to see the boiler operating and driving various steam driven machines!
About Biggar Gasworks Steam Days
Enter the last remaining town gasworks in Scotland – the only surviving example of a once familiar sight. For more than 130 years, this industrial plant made coal gas for Biggar and beyond before the advent of natural gas in the 1960s.
See the coal fired boiler put to work and the steam driven machinery in action. Learn the secret of how gas was produced from coal from our guides on site.
No booking required.
Included in admission price. Tickets can be purchased on arrival.
