The displays in the museum are being constantly changed, so frequent visitors will always find something different and fresh to see.
We were extremely fortunate to be given a wonderful collection of pictures, etchings, ceramics and other items - the Malmesbury Collection - by the Hatchwell family. This has been on display for four months but has been taken down as part of the rotation system.

We are also acquiring the wedding dress, many lace samples and bobbins plus scrap books which used to belong to Dorothy Barnes. Dorothy was famed locally for her lace-making and this will enhance the material we already have.
