    This year we have the support  of Jennifer Skellington who has put together an excellent exhibition on 'Music in the Community' which in itself is well worth a visit. To compliment this the ladies from Filkins and BP are ringing their hand bells at 2.30pm, 3.00pm, and 4.00pm.

    Other Exhibitions cover the use of horses in the village prior to tractors and 'Dobbin' is making his first appearance showing off the leather working harness used in the Filkins fields.

    We look forward to welcoming you into our small but perfectly formed Museum!
