There’s more to the Museum than exhibitions and there's lots that we can offer online, just look at the list on the left hand menu for an idea.

We have a large number of memory boxes that can help older people and people living with dementia reminisce about their past. Items in these boxes are designed to spark memories and encourage discussion. Our loan service will be available soon, but in the meantime, we have put together a series of short memory box videos which explore the different boxes and their contents.

We also offer an identification service. If you’ve found a historical item but don’t know what it is, we’re happy to have a look at it and try to help identify it.

We’ve put together a whole host of online things to do including crafts, quizzes and activities. You can also see lots of videos that cover all sorts of things from arming a knight to the history of tea, from Henry VIII celebrating fatherhood to Christmas at Revolution House. Have a look at our YouTube playlist.
