Athelstan Museum holds nearly 5,000 objects in its collection. How do we take items into the collection? Why and how do we move them out? How do we know what we have and where it is? How do we look after the collection? How do we make it accessible to the public? Plus a look at some of the fascinating and perhaps surprising objects that you may not know we hold! Deborah Clogg will take us behind the scenes at the Museum.
A photograph of the famous gold top hat of Harry Jones, one time Mayor and Landlord of the Kings Arms in the early 20th century.
