The Standedge Tunnel Visitor Centre at the Marsden end of the tunnel is in the former warehouse used for transshipment of goods from canal barge to packhorse between 1798 when the canal reached Marsden and 1811 when the tunnel opened.
The centre contains exhibitions on the history of the tunnels, the canal tunnel's recent restoration and the Huddersfield Narrow Canal.
Tunnel End Cottages, which once housed canal maintenance workers, houses a café and the booking office for 30-minute canal tunnel trips using electric tugs that push the passenger barge.

The visitor centre is about half a mile (0.8 km) west of Marsden railway station, reached via the canal towpath.
Adjacent to the station are the headquarters of the National Trust's Marsden Moor Estate which has a public exhibition, Welcome to Marsden that gives an overview of the area and its transport history.
