Chairman’s Report
The year has been fairly successful for the Museum with several important aquisitions made, some of which will be used enhance our interactive touch screen display which visitors young and old are enjoying. A full-sized railway box van has been restored and moved to its position alongside the goods shed at Parkend where other items of museum rolling stock also reside. Work has been ongoing on a Heritage Lottery Bid with the initial paperwork now submitted for the restoration of the wooden goods shed at Parkend to enable the establishment of a museum annex.
