CELEBRATING OUR NEW STATUS AS A MUSEUM
Honeywood 20th December 2007
In October 2007 Sutton Council won formal
accreditation from the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council (the MLA)
for Honeywood in Carshalton, Whitehall in Cheam, and Little Holland
House in Carshalton Beeches. With this seal of approval the Council will
be able to apply for extra funding to upgrade facilities, ensuring that
the Borough's collections are secure for future generations to enjoy.
The Council's 'Heritage Service' has now been re-branded the 'Sutton
Museum and Heritage Service'.
An invited group of staff, supporters and friends got together at
Honeywood Museum in December to mark the occasion.
