10 Nov

Visit to: MORGAN MOTOR COMPANY

Date Tuesday, 10 Nov 2026 10:30 am
Visit
On: Tuesday 10th November at 10.40
 
We are asked to arrive 15 minutes before our booked time. I suggest arriving earlier, as tea and coffee are included before and after the tour, and there will also be time to browse the Morgan shop.
 
We will then take a two-hour guided factory tour, visiting the workshops at each stage of production. A knowledgeable brand ambassador will lead the tour around the historic workshops showing the unique processes that go into building a Morgan ending in the archive room with an overview of the company’s story and heritage.
 
The tour costs £32.75, including tea and coffee before and after.
