Halton Lea Library is currently home to a display of fascinating objects from the public collections of Halton.
The current theme is ‘royal events and visits’. The theme will change to ‘war’ on 5 January and ‘work and play’ on 25 January. You can see more of the collections at Norton Priory Museum and Gardens, Catalyst Science Discovery Centre and Runcorn Town Hall.
Cataloguing of the collection has been possible with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund. There are over 2,500 objects and the catalogue will be published during Spring 2011.
