🚸 Imagine generations of schoolchildren passing through this grand door from Ripley Church School, crafted in 1846 with striking Gothic ironwork. Originally painted green, the door now displays its solid oak, carefully revealed by the restoration work of our Founding Collector, Charles Brooking.

New year, new equipment: a larger trolley custom-built to handle our collection, with no more tipping when we move hefty doors! The trolley is already earning its keep by helping our staff to move a cell door from Guildford Police Station, which dates to 1854.

This month, we had the pleasure of welcoming Giles Quarme Architects to our collection to explore sash windows, staircases, and more, guided by Charles Brooking. Such visits are currently by appointment only as we organize and inventory the collection, but more online access is coming soon!
