About
Our first collections event this year will be on April 30 - May 2.Over the collections weekend, visitors will be able to see an exhibition of objects and documents from the castle collection and archive which will give an insight into the famous Tamworth clay works and talk to our Castle Museum Collections and Archives Officer to find out more. Normal admission charges apply. You can pre-book a ticket via our general admissions page.
The castle's trained volunteers are collecting oral histories and are looking for members of the public who have connections to Gibbs and Canning, Skey and the clay industries in Tamworth. This includes any people who may have worked at one of the clay works (or be related to someone who did) or live in a building connected with one of the clay works. Please get in touch by emailing heritage@tamworth.gov.uk.
