Committee members, shown around by the Museum's Curator Jane Howard, took an opportunity on 28th September 2011 to see for themselves the state of progress. There is still mush to do of course, but we hope these few pictures give a taste of the 'state of play' in what is a very complex and time-consuming project. The task of refurbishment is steadily moving forward at a gathering pace. Chairman Mike Bale and all the Friends of Honeywood Museum committee are working hard to ensure our views are known at all stages and we look forward to the reopening of our beloved museum; reinvigorated and ready to welcome guests once more in 2012.
