Hello everyone, We are missing all of our visitors and the museum is certainly the quietest it has ever been at this time of the year. We know that many of you... would have visited us by now and we thought how nice it would be to give you a weekly site update. We are going to start every Wednesday with photographs from our own museum and Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Gardens. We will focus on trees and plants that are beginning to blossom and look fabulous. Every Monday we will post a photograph of an artefact on site and ask you to guess what it is, answers will be available on Friday. If you have any requests for photographs of particular plants, trees or even our fish we will happily post those. We are all looking forward to being open and seeing you again, until then we hope that you stay safe and well. The Bewdley Museum Team.
