So go take a look! The Ropewalk's a great place with lovely things to buy in the Craft Gallery, interesting exhibitions, a good cafe & a great garden with sculptures.  You can even find out all about the history of rope making at the Barton Ropery in the Ropewalk Museum.  The building has a characteristic ropewalk from its ropemaking days - hence the name!
