Welcome to Manham Port, where a thousand years of history are brought to life.
歡迎來到Manham港口，千年的歷史會在這里重現。
All the family can enjoy a day out at Manham:
所有的家庭在Manham都能盡情享受出游的這一天：
visit our copper mine, see models of the machinery it used, have your photo taken in nineteenth-century costume,
你們可以參觀這里的銅礦、看看礦井里使用的機器的模型、穿著十九世紀的服裝拍照、
experience at first hand how people lived at different stages throughout history, and especially how children studied, worked and played.
親身體驗人們在不同歷史時期的生活狀態，尤其是孩子們是如何學習、工作和玩耍的。
The port of Manham is located in beautiful and peaceful countryside, on a bend in the great River Avon,
Manham港口位于美麗平靜的鄉間，地處偉大的埃文河河灣。
and developed here because it's the highest navigable point of the Avon — boats can go no higher up this river
這里能夠發展起來主要得益于它是埃文河最高的通航點（這條河上的船只最高只能航行到這里），
and proved a handy place to load and unload cargo to and from the sea, which is over 23 miles away.
而且事實證明，由于這里離海岸只有23英里，是個給來往船只裝卸貨物的極佳地點。
A small port was already established here when, about 900 years ago, tin was discovered nearby,
早在900多年前錫礦在這附近被發現時，這里就已經建立了一個小港口，
though it wasn't until the Industrial Revolution when a tremendous need for metals of all kinds developed that Manham expanded to become one of the busiest ports in the country.
不過直到工業革命時期，各類金屬的需求急劇增加之后，Manham才擴張成為國內最繁忙的港口之一。
