Can You Write Arundel’s History?

Museum volunteers are capturing memories of life in Arundel between 1939 and 1953 – from the beginning of the Second World War to the Coronation.  We have already recorded a range of individual memories of how Arundel fared and how it changed during these crucial years.  These recordings, together with their written transcriptions will become an important part of Arundel Museum’s collection.

We need help!  We urgently need volunteers to transcribe these memories from audio recordings to paper.  The recordings are provided on CD but audio cassette is possible.  If you have access to a computer, are able to touch type and wish to contribute to this and future oral history projects, please contact Roger Halls by telephone on 01903 214231 or Al Dunn on email at al.dunn01@btconnect.com.


Two for One Offer for Members at the St Mary's Gate Inn

Terry and Helen Bedford of the St Mary's Gate Inn are continuing to support the Museum by giving this Two for One Offer.  Two members may eat for the price of the more expensive meal from the menu.

  • Lunch - 12.00-2.30pm (not Sunday).
  • Evenings - 6.00-7.30pm (not Jazz Nights on last Friday of the month, or premium dates over Christmas).

Valid membership cards must be shown.
