Together, you'll wander through Blantyre's past, present, and future. Go back to Mickey's Cafe for ice cream, or Benham's shop for sweets and the newspaper. You'll learn about the streets named after real people, and why they get the privilege when others did not.
Learn about the history of the people, businesses, and buildings that makes the town what it is today. Following in the pawsteps of the likes of David Livingstone, you'll discover what made the town as big as it is.
