From a gift of old photos, a road trip from Biddenden to Rye. Imagine cycling in that getup!
Dear @UPS: last Thursday, our package(s) were listed as out for delivery. Then it switched to "clearance in progress" where it has been ever since. I know one of the three items was backordered; could we not have the other two, please?
All these years and only 528 posts. I should tweet more. #MyXAnniversary
Someone left this wonderful tortoiseshell comb for us in the East Street museum with no information. Any idea what era? We're tentatively thinking Edwardian (see: Gibson Girl).
We're hosting a Children's Craft Afternoon tomorrow 2-4 at 3 East Street. This one is free, with accompanying adult.
The East Street Museum is open every day of the Rye Arts Festival. Your chance to visit on a weekday!
Hey, that's us!
Tonight's talk is by Geoffrey Mead - Landscapes in Southeast England. Doors open at 7:00 and talks start promptly at 7:30. Entrance is £3 for members and £4 for guests. Non-members are welcome!
The talk tonight is Imogen Corrigan on "The Powers Behind the Thrones" - Anglo Saxon women. Doors open at 7, talk starts promptly at 7:30. £3 members, £4 non-members - non members welcome! Come early - Imogen is a popular speaker.
Museum people: are there any good online discussion forums for museums? I'm finding high-level philosophical conversations but I just want to know how to cut Plastazote for coin displays.
This came across my desk this morning:
We're doing our best to open the East Street Museum every day for the Rye Arts Festival, starting tomorrow. You can't miss us - we bought one of these:
Children's Craft Afternoon today, August 16 from 2:00 to 4:00 at 3 East Street. Cost is £2.50 per child ages 4-10 with accompanying adult. Thanks so much to @RyeRotary for financing the craft supplies!
Ooo...that's us at 0:05!
Ooo...that's us at 0:05!
TALK TONIGHT: 'Ashdown Forest: ancient landscape of Sussex' by Geoffrey Mead. Geoffrey is an excellent and popular speaker. The talk is in person at 3 East Street. Doors open at 7, talk starts promptly at 7:30. Admission is £3 for members and £4 for non-members.
The Museum has joined the Rye Community Lottery. It's £1 a week to play and the first draw is in 11 days. Take a chance on us! rothercommunitylottery.co.uk/support/rye-mu…
We have asked our membership. We have asked the Society for Clay Pipe Research (answer pending). We found these objects in a large collection of clay pipes recently given to us and we can't work out what they are. Anyone know?
The next talk at Rye Museum is "If Walls Could Speak" - little known anecdotes about the town of Rye - by Peter Ewart (very popular speaker). In person in the Museum at 3 East Street. No booking required but seating limited. Thursday, April 14. Talks start promptly at 7:30.
The 3 East Street Museum opens for the 2022 season tomorrow. We have a morning session on Saturday and an afternoon on Sunday. Come see the 'Town Museum' of Rye! No charge for admission.
We have three on display in East Street (season opens April 2). There is some dispute about the antiquity of the slogan "Wunt Be Druv" - the 1875 the Dictionary of the Sussex Dialect calls it "a favourite maxim with Sussex people". Our oldest example is 1905.

A fair few identified a stool of 18th Dynasty - 1550-1292 BC - from Thebes Egypt 👏👏. From 3rd collection of Henry Salt, diplomat/collector who sold/auctioned 1000s of pieces in early 19th C: many went to BM, some to France. Pictured @GNM_Hancock; on long term loan from BM.
#Woodensday A quiz question for you: This stool caught my eye in a museum in northern England with its attractively simple, elegant design and confident craftsmanship. When do you think it was made, and where? I'll reveal all later today if you're interested.....
