Backstage in The Gage - Bilson school log book

Today’s session will be suitable for all the family!

We’ll be taking a look at the logbook for Bilson School in Cinderford. The logbook records everyday life at Bilson Infants School in the late 1800s. What was school life like? What did children get up to? How different was school then compared to now?

Come to the Collections room to get a glimpse behind the scenes, see objects that are not on display and chat with our staff and dedicated volunteers. A great opportunity to get close to history and discover some of the many wonderful stories in our collection
