Deep Clean Conservation Tour (18 January 2025)

The D.H. Lawrence Museum will be closed for its annual deep clean between  22 December 2024 and 23 January 2025. Museum officers and volunteers will be cleaning over 2,000 items. The kitchen will also get its annual black lead polish, a job that was carried out weekly in D.H. Lawrence's time!

This year, for the first time we are offering a unique opportunity to experience behind the scenes of the D.H. Lawrence Museum Deep Clean. Gain experience with historic objects and learn about the importance of their conservation and even learn a few tricks to preserve your own treasures. The tour will be led from 11am by museum officer and D.H. Lawrence expert, Carolyn Melbourne.

You can book your place online (Opens in a New Window
