We are delighted to announce the launch of our new museum display cabinet at Woody Bay. The display has a selection of historic objects from the Trust’s collection, including original L&B tablets, tools, signs, and documents.
As explained in recent newsletters, we aspire to create a proper museum, and this display is the first step towards that goal. We are working in parallel to formalise the cataloguing and documentation of the Trust’s collection, with a view to making images and descriptions of objects available online in future. The Trust is always interested in expanding its collection of objects to allow us to better tell the story of the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway. The museum team can be contacted at [email protected]
We hope that members and visitors will enjoy the display and find it educational. The cabinet can be found in the tearoom at Woody Bay during the railway’s published opening hours.
