What a cart had to do
Start with a cart or wagon and look at how it is built. What was its load space suited to and what does the museum explain about its use? Then compare another example. Differences become more interesting when you can link them to a specific task.
A replica farmhouse
The small farmhouse and the deep-litter byre (potstal) offer a different way in from the individual implements. See how the display places living and working side by side. It is a reconstructed setting; for a given detail, ask what situation it explains.
A Sunday on the grounds
The regular public opening in the season falls on the last Sunday of the month. Groups can also make an appointment. This gives an opportunity to discuss questions about materials and tasks, without expecting a demonstration or event as a matter of course.
Before you go
Check that you are choosing the last Sunday of the month. Volunteers’ working days are not announced public openings.
