The event has passed.

The first of five talks to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Museum of Lead Mining.

Would you know there were so many topics covered in the Miners’ Library Collection?

“A cheerful Anniversary introduction to the Museum of Lead Mining.
From carob seeds to crowns and book bindings. From kibbles to barouches,
toothpaste and canaries. From curling ponds to Madras, Windsor Castle and Paraguay.
How many did you recognise?” Anne Buddle, Trustee, Wanlockhead Museum Trust – formerly NGS & V&A
