Heritage Museum
Thanks to the varied range of events which took place this year, visitor numbers were higher than in 2019 – the last full year when the museum was open.
From open air markets to toddler storytelling and craft sessions; from the return of the Hamewith school concerts to the special Night at the Museum; from bale decorati ng to leather tatt ooing, all events were well supported and enjoyed by the local community.

Behind the scenes, some volunteers worked on conserving objects and recording the collecti ons, whilst others concentrated on more administrati ve tasks such as negoti ati ng for future developments and improvements to the building.
The Architectural Heritage Fund have 16 awarded the museum a grant to enable further building surveys and architect input to support this project.
Work will conti nue over the winter closure period as the museum looks forward to opening again in April 2023. The team were delighted to be featured recently on BBC Radio Scotland Out of Doors when the new Memory Boxes were discussed.
These can be borrowed by local schools or other groups and will sti ll be available during the closed period – just send the museum an email on info@ alfordheritagemuseum.com.
