The museum is celebrating Heritage Open Days this September and re launching its guided walks of Borough Hill. Join Museum Volunteer, Mike Arnold, and take a trip back through the ages of this historic site.

The walk looks at the history of the hill from its formation in the Jurassic period about 140 million years ago, through the geological period, to the human occupation of the hill.

Discover the history now hidden under the beautiful nature of this British Heritage protected site.

Access

The site is mostly rough grass tracks, some areas are inaccessible to wheelchairs or need the ability to walk over steep slopes and very uneven ground. These areas can however be bypassed on the rough tracks. An off-road wheelchair would be capable of accessing the full walk and pushchairs capable of being used on rough grassland will be able to access the walk.

COVID-19 Considerations

Please do not attend if you feel unwell or have COVID-19 symptoms.

This event will run in line with local & national government guidelines at the time of the festival. Attendees on the guided walk advised to keep a safe distance between each group/family on the walk.
