NEW! Honeywood Explorer Bags

10/11/2018

 
Calling all young Explorers! On the weekend 17/18 November Honeywood Museum is launching Explorer Bags, aimed at 6-10 year olds.

The Friends of Honeywood Museum have had bags made specially to help young visitors explore the house. Any children visiting Honeywood can borrow one. Each bag contains a trail around the house which makes sure children are looking at the architecture of the building and at the exhibits!

To complete the trail they will need a magnifying glass, torch and tape measure, which are all provided!

The bag also contains appropriate colouring sheets and pencils and a very special jigsaw of Honeywood. Enough to keep a young enthusiast busy for an hour or two!

Our Black History Month talk - 24 October 2018 at 19:30

17/10/2018

 
Picture
We still have a limited number of tickets available for our Black History Month talk on Wednesday 24 October at 19:30.

Black British Civil Rights Heroines rarely feature in discussing matters relating to Civil Rights; this talk is likely to reveal a lot about past prejudices and what we may have learnt from them. 

Tony Warner's presentation will provide the names and achievements of those black women born or resident here that fought against British racism over the last 300 years.


We are delighted to say that we will be joined by ​ members of the Black Cultural Archives based in Windrush Square, Brixton.

'Phone Sue on 020 8642 4778 to book tickets. £5 (£4 Friends), which includes tea/coffee from 19:00.

Delayed Opening on 18 October

17/10/2018

 
Please be aware that on Thursday 18 October Honeywood Museum will open at 13:00 rather than 11:00 to facilitate staff training. Our Tea Room will be open as usual.

New Little Holland House Events

New Little Holland House events have now been added. Some require booking through Honeywood Museum. Please do so soonest if you wish to attend.

Welcome to our new Website!!

10/10/2018

 
Somewhat later than we had hoped, we are delighted to welcome you to our new Website. Unanticipated technical issues have had to be resolved, and we thank our hosting partners at 34SP for their perseverance behind the scenes in resolving them.

Hopefully you will find it clearer and easier to navigate than our old site, especially if you view it on mobile devices. We've gone for clarity over gizmos and have endeavoured to make sure all the most essential information about Honeywood Museum is easy to find.

We have quite a substantial amount of archive material to transfer from our old site which we started in 2006. This will be added over coming weeks (months!!). Memories, Previous Events and Transport in particular.

Our Archaeology and Shop pages are currently under review, and we are discussing how best to make them available in the future.

Please do bookmark us and pop in from time to time to see What's On at Honeywood Museum.
