Our galleries are quietest on weekdays and weekend mornings. At busy times, particularly on Saturdays, you may need to queue for our temporary exhibitions.

We’re undertaking some research with website visitors to learn more about how people find access-related information provided by museums. This survey shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!

Collection of cookery and medical receipts: written mainly by two compilers.
The medical receipts are mostly on ff. 65-95, and are written by the later hand.
A receipt for 15/- 'for a table and all account' is found on the last leaf, and is dated 1736, but it is by a later hand than any in the main text.
