Not sure why

Brilliant App! Very useful

I went on a trip to Millom with my close friend who’s also my course mate to explore the town that Norman Nicholson was deeply attached to and beautifully wrote about its industrial heritage in his poetry, after studying Nicholson on our course the ‘Ma literature Romanticism and the English Lake District’ with the Uni of Cumbria.

Using the Norman Nicholson Trails app, we found both the town trail and the heritage trail very useful on our visit, it’s amazing how the app speaks to you as you walk through or near a place of a historical significance. We were never lost, we always found something to do and we had the app to guide us.
Millom was absolutely beautiful and the app helped us see everything we needed to see around there as well as saved us so much time.

Needs more content

A very good app but most of the content is mainly in the North of England with a huge part of Sheffield included. This app would be excellent if more content is added in the future and if so I would change my rating.

Limited Attractions

An app that is ok if you are lucky enough to be anywhere near one of it’s limited locations.

Crashes on start up.
