Nina's Blog - Wednesday 17th September 2025

It was quite a struggle deciding what to do today. It was raining hard when I got up. Not my idea of ideal weather for tramping around the footpaths around the holiday park. So I decided to visit Liskeard by car.

Glad I did because Liskeard has an excellent little museum and lots of charity and secondhand shops.

Now I'm in The Hive having a quite reasonable mocha and a slice of lemon polenta cake

The local museum has an eclectic collection of exhibits. There is of course a room devoted to tin mining and the machinery involved but there is also a room devoted to toys and another to textiles.

I was especially taken by some free style embroidery







This one is especially good

@JSul3 Thank you, glad you like them. I love to visit the small local museums, they are often much more interesting than the big famous ones.
