Preserving the rich heritage of Alford and Donside for future generations

Crathie Primary School Visit Alford Heritage Museum

We were delighted to welcome an enthusiastic group of pupils from Crathie Primary School to the museum. They are studying the Victorians and so were able to see what life was like in days gone by, visiting the school room, the chaumer where the farm servants slept, and some of the old shops and workshops. Lots of questions were asked and mystery items identified. The pupils are now going to work on their project and are considering setting up their own mini museum in their school.
