Virtual Tour - The Duncombe Room
... is located on the first floor off the Cookworthy Room.
The Duncombe Room was newly refurbished for the 2008 season, funded by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund. It provides a flexible space, to be used for mounting themed displays of significance to the South Hams.
For 2011 the theme is "Anniversaries". This explores the history of local organisations and events, in particular the 550th anniversary of the Kingsbridge Fair Charter (1461-2011).
The Room also houses two computer kiosks which give access to the museum collection of historic local photographs, and will also show images related to current and previous exhibitions.
