Burston Strike School

Burston Strike School

The Burston Strike School is famed as the site of the longest strike in British history and is the site of an annual commemorative rally. 

The small school was set up by sacked teachers Annie and Tom Higdon and is where they taught the village children who, for 25 years, went on strike to support them. The museum comprises the original strike school and related displays.
