THE NEW WEBSITE

During the lockdown period, we decided that we needed a website which was more appropriate to the needs of both ourselves and our virtual visitors, particularly with the changing culture brought about by the Covid virus.  We have commissioned a specialist company to help us in the modern digital age, and work is progressing in this regard.  The new website will be opened in stages and will include a virtual tour of the museum, searchable databases for the museum photograph collection and general archives, an online shop, a diary of events and activities and the plans for the proposed extension to the buildings.  It will be accessed by the same domain name as this website, so at some point this year you will open the new site which will give you much more up to date and wide-ranging information.
