Our galleries are quietest on weekdays and weekend mornings. At busy times, particularly on Saturdays, you may need to queue for our temporary exhibitions.

We’re undertaking some research with website visitors to learn more about how people find access-related information provided by museums. This survey shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!

Inscription on the reverse reads, 'Here is a lady and cupboard and workbox and chair,
Here is a window which does not admit the fresh air.
She looks down and knits and is modest and shy.
She has sowed [sic] but improvement she's zealous to try.
I hope 'twill and that Comforters many
Will reward her industry and bring her a penny.'
