Object of the Month
A monthly series, where our Curator writes about a highlight object, chosen from one of Denys Eyre Bower’s collections.
We are thrilled to be awarded a grant as part of the government’s Culture Recovery Fund and #HereForCulture.
The government’s Culture Recovery Fund is a part of the Here for Culture movement. #HereForCulture unites the public, government and cultural organisations in support of our fantastic cinemas, theatre, music venues, museums, galleries and heritage.


A key part of our work is preserving and caring for the collections so they can be enjoyed for generations. The trust is grateful to have received a grant from the AIM Pilgrim Trust Conservation Scheme, enabling us to conserve two key objects - an Ancient Egyptian bronze statuette of the goddess Bastet (Late Period, 661 – 332 BC), and a cup made from a coconut shell with silver fittings dating from 1665.
They will be on display for our 2022 open season.
