The Whitaker Brothers had at least seven sons who took part in WW1. Three of them died. In the Museum we have some details of the men on the Horsforth Cenotaph who we must never forget.
The Museum Garden is looking good its a pity it will not be entered in the Leeds in bloom Compitition this year but our volunteer who tends the grounds has a busy time on her hands and will settle for nothing but Gold in prizes as she has had in the past. Maybe another year lets hope.
Horsforth Museum reopens on 29th of March 2014 exhibitions include Great War relics of all kinds from embroidered cards from France to the remains of an army boot with some history of our Horsforth heroes. A display of the Suffragettes and there war work and "For the love of Bike" a vintage cycle exhibition. Call in and pass some time entry free.
