A new addition to our displays on this #HeritageTreasures Day. This uniform belonged to Joan Fanshawe, one of the 1st WAAFs to be employed in the Dowding System. We welcomed Joan several times before she sadly passed away in 2018. Her uniform has been kindly loaned by her family.
As 2021 draws to a close, we would like to share just some of the amazing projects we were involved in throughout the year. From a record breaking stamp to a sunken cannon to whole display cases full of shoes to a delicate ceramic.
They all tell a story and are now all displayed safely and securely for all to enjoy. Here's to the new year full of even more exciting projects! Photos- Kelly Cooper @NorthamptonShoe Andy Lamb -@StanleyGibbons @DorsetMuseum @UptonHouseNT@wessexarch
A couple of weeks ago the team travelled to Faversham to install three bespoke cases for @DariusWilson . Some very exciting objects will be in these cases soon.

Day 29: Movement. The most precious part of any installation. Making sure that the case can fit in every part of the route to its installation location! #museum30
