What the Victorians did for us Events & Exhibitions

So much of this museum is concerned with the industry of the Victorians. Actors create the stories of the harsh conditions of Victorian workers - these appear within picture frames and talk to you. Research was carried out here for the 'Larkrise to Candle Ford' television series. We are launching this to coincide with the subject of the Museums & Galleries special month – which is 'Ideas and Innovations'. On sale in the museum shop will be Terry Pratchett's Disk world stamps, and the author himself has kindly agreed to open the exhibition. Children's activities include permanent dressing-up boxes, interactive displays and games.
