It is hard to believe the museum has closed for the winter period.  My thanks to all the museum stewards who have made it possible for us to keep the museum open  for the last 6 months  and to Maggie Lancaster for her efficiency in organising the rotas and taking care of the stewards.

Our volunteer  stewards are very important to us and the role they play cannot be underestimated. With the ongoing repairs to the Guildhall, & the [temporary] closure of the museum office resulting in accommodation problems, this season has not been the easiest within which to operate.  My additional thanks to stewards and other volunteers, committee members / trustees and visitors for your forbearance during a particularly  difficult period in the life of the museum.
