Scruton Station set dressed for a school visit under the Scruton Station Heritage Education Programme
Over the last month, we have welcomed almost 200 children from five local primary schools to the station and received much praise and positive feedback on the experience we are providing. Set-dressed as it may have looked in 1916, the station provides a remarkably authentic setting for the visits, and sincere thanks to all of you who dedicated time and energy to help with the archival research, costume-making and artefact-sourcing which have underpinned the project (--/06/2016)
