Friday 27th May 1988
Of great interest. Joy West has put the finishing touches to a Victorian working girl’s wedding dress which is part of a special exhibition of local items of interest at Warminster Dewey Museum this month [May 1988].
Marie Freer, Danny Howell, Howard Freer and Reg Cundick, who are all members of the Warminster History Society, have mounted the display which continues to the end of the month.
Among the exhibits are pieces of equipment from the old Stiles Bros., and Wilson & Kennard shops which are usually too large to put on show, and a couple of prints of the staff at the former Alfred Jefferies’ gloving factory taken in the 1920s. The museum’s curator Jack Field would be delighted to discover the names of those who appear in the photographs.
