Amberley Museum celebrates 40th anniversary with weekend of events
The museum opened to the public on the former chalk pits site adjacent to the village in 1979 and its latest exhibition, Meet the Workers, offers an insight into what it was like to work there.
Lord Lieutenant of West Sussex, Susan Pyper, will open the exhibition at 10am on Saturday, and there are a host of activities planned on Saturday and Sunday (November 16 and 17) to celebrate the museum’s anniversary.
