dunsbyowl1867 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I have vivid memories of being taken here by my grandparents in the 1970s - one thing in particular - in a glass case. A cat one one head and two bodies! Anybody else? http://www.rotherham.gov.uk/graphics/Learn...nParkMuseum.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest plain talker Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I don't remember the cat, but I do remember a very threadbare stuffed lion, called Nelson, in a glass case in the entrance hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gramps Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I went there once with 'mi Dad' in the 1950s. My memory is that it was quite pathetic compared with Weston Park Museum. The Ruskin Museum in Meersbrook Park was another not very child friendly place I was dragged to occasionally, but it must have made some impression or I wouldn't be here he he Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think 2 heads and one body would have been more interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
