THE EXHIBITIONS
Although the entire collection of the Framley Museum was swept
away by floodwaters in 1981, there's still plenty to see and enjoy,
as long as your expectations aren't too high.
There are stamps, bowls, stuffed animals and even an interactive
diorama explaining the evolution of the mop.
Here on the website (here), we hope to bring you a flavour of
the taste of a few of the museum's impressive array of variety
of collections.

BRINGING THE PAST TO LIVE
The museum's display cases will fascinate anyone interested in
the development of the institutional exhibition cabinet. This
example is made from pre-stressed maple, in a classic "Casablanca"
style with singnature Allingford screw-mounted support struts
for the leg braces, and was designed by Marvin Hearth of Hearth
and Nugent cabinetmakers of St Eyot's in late 1985, shortly after
the company moved to new premises at the river end of Tanner Lane.
It also contains some things.
