Just a reminder about our archive session on Sunday...

🗂️ Behind the scenes in the archive!

Our Archive Sessions are all about uncovering stories from the past. We’ve been delving into records, digitising photographs, scanning materials, and carefully sorting through the fascinating collection of documents discovered in Austin and Wyatt’s attic.
It’s meticulous work, but every box opened and every image preserved helps bring our history to life for future generations. 📸📜
If you would like to help, our next session is on Sunday 22 March 2-4pm at the museum is. The palace grounds
