15 March –
13 July
The River Great
Ouse is often described as the jewel in Bedford’s crown, but
just how much do we know about this treasure and what goes on along
its banks. In this exhibition we look at just some of the stories
from the Vale of Bedford, revealing life on the banks of the River
Great Ouse.
Picturesque
views, political uprisings, crime and punishment, engineering feats
and sporting victories will be explored – it’s not all
messing about in boats! |
