Day 24 - Saturday 22nd July - Selkirk - Halliwell's Museum

Day 24 - Saturday 22nd July

Selkirk - Halliwell's Museum

Weather:  Cloudy and then drizzly 

The lady in here informed me that the museum was no Longer the Visitor Centre, but was happ to provide me with maps of Selkirk. It had a variety of well constructed and interesting exhibits, for instance a box bed, common in the early days -


... with a picture of what it was like in use -


... and what Laurie's general store looked like in the early days -



... and even more intriguing, evidence of Stone Age people living in the area -


... with artifacts to back up the theory -
