Beechin Wood Archery Museum

The Club was invited to visit this excellent archery museum in April 2016. The breadth and depth of scale of the exhibits was amazing. One of the comments received from an attendee sums up how we all felt:

Thanks very much for arranging this visit. It was really fascinating. I don't think I, for one, had appreciated the true scale of the collection. The passion and depth of knowledge around every item that Bill demonstrated was staggering. Please pass on my thanks again for his generous hospitality, making us so welcome and for giving us so much of his time. He was the perfect host as well as a wonderful curator.
