Around Blandford in 20 Objects

Explore Blandford in the past and present with the Museum’s free summer trail to discover what was in the town centre in 1900. The trail follows 20 locations around East Street, West Street, Salisbury Street and the Market Place and includes chemists, boot makers and printers. Each location will display a poster showing an artefact related to the shop, along with a simple question. When you have visited them all, come to the museum to see the artefacts, check your answers and collect a free badge.
