We are delighted to join in the national Heritage Open Day 2024!
In keeping with this year's theme of routes, connections and networks, we have been looking at the way that children in schools were historically taught about the world around them.
Victorian Geography lessons, maps of now-lost countries, and the British Empire are all featured in our exhibition. Put yourselves in the shoes of a schoolchild 100 years ago and see what connections you might see with the world around you...
