Visit from the Duke of York
5th April 2018
We were lucky enough to be chosen for a visit from the Duke of Kent. He was introduced to various members of the community who had involvement with the Museum. The Duke spent about half an hour with us and seemed to enjoy his visit. He is seen here with Linda Vine, discussing the Queenborough Charter celebrations planned for May 2018.
