Angus Folk Museum
Angus Folk Museum
The site provides Insight into rural Scottish life 200 years ago. Housing one of Scotland's finest folk collections, this museum shows exactly how the country's rural workforce used to live. Children can experience a Victorian classroom, see how people lived and worked, and dress up in traditional costumes. Groups will be split into small groups of no more than 10 pupils. We can arrange demonstrations on specific topics such as weaving and linen - please ask for further information.
Outside, the agriculture section is often the favourite part of the museum, especially when the Bothy Ballads are playing and the guides tell stories of life on the land in days gone by. Schools with Educational Membership gain entry to all National Trust for Scotland properties for free; outwith published opening hours there is a charge of £2 per person to cover staffing costs.
