***SORRY – SOLD OUT***
On Friday 28 and Saturday 29 October, we will open our doors from 7pm for pre-booked visitors to experience our atmospheric Museum at Night guided walks.
These unique walks offer a truly out of the ordinary experience – visitors will be guided by lamplight to different spaces around the Museum, to hear a series of short night-time stories. Some will be amusing, some mysterious and some downright odd. Some are definitely not the stuff to ensure sweet dreams…
Each story has a historical root, as truth is far stranger than fiction.
At the end of the evening, participants are invited gather around an open fire for a calming spiced warm drink of an alcoholic or non-alcoholic variety, plus a biscuit.
