Hi, I'm Anna, the Assistant Manager @congletonmuseum. You might have seen me at the Green Fayre last weekend showcasing the museums newest project and mini exhibition "Our Dissappearing Nature."
The project is based on a book in our collection, the 1915 publication by Rev G Cartlidge, who listed all the plants growing in the area during that year.
We want to know which plants are still growing in those areas and if new ones are flourishing, so that we can compare the results with Cartlidge's book.
More information about the project to follow. Please ensure you follow us on social media platforms to keep updated.
Thank you, @congletontc, for inviting us and putting on such a fantastic event. We're already looking forward to next year's #greenfayre !

This is your last chance to attend our beloved heritage walks this year. Sunday Walk - Retail Therapy is on TODAY AT 2PM.
🌧 It is scheduled to stop raining at 2pm, and not start again until 4pm. And by that time you'll all be tucked away in the museum with a cream tea.
☔️ Bring your brollies just in case.
As usual, the walk includes a cream tea. So for only £6.50 (£4.50 members), you get a spectacular history walk around the town, led by our expert guide, Ian, followed by a delicious cream tea back at the museum. Now that's sure to warm you up!
#didyouknow that the walk comes with a booklet for you to take home? Filled with photographs from Congleton's past?
If you're unsure how to support the museum, then attending our last walk of the year would warm our hearts. We'd very much like to beat our record of 28 people in attendance.
See you there!
⏰️ Sunday 1st October @ 2pm
📍 Congleton Museum, CW12 1ET
