Anstey Wallpaper Company Factory Tour

Visitors can explore the entire journey of wallpaper production, from our wooden blocks storeroom to traditional and digital printing, and the finishing of individual rolls. The tour also includes a visit to the design studio, where they can see the inception of a design. A highlight for many is witnessing how wallpaper was originally printed using blocks. The building itself boasts a rich history, having once housed the famous Ladybird book factory before transforming into our wallpaper haven. Our tours are personally led by Anstey Wallpaper employees, ensuring a unique and insightful experience.

This year we will be opening our doors on Saturday 19th September

Accessibility details

Your tour should last between 1 hour 15 minutes and 1 hour 30 minutes, but please make sure to arrive 15 minutes prior to the tour start time. The signing-in point will be located at the reception (identified by bunting). You will also need to receive a full health and safety briefing here before your tour. The tour is around 1 mile long in total, and so there is quite a bit of walking, up stairs and standing involved. Please make sure to wear comfortable, flat, sturdy, closed toe footwear (high-heels or sandals are not permitted) and bring small bags which you are happy to carry around.
