Corrigall Farm Museum

We all enjoyed our trip to Corrigall Farm Museum where we experienced life on a Victorian farm.
We had a go at washing clothes with a wash board and soap...
... it was hard work!


 Carrying water.

 We found it quite heavy!
The wooden frame helped stop the water from spilling out.
 We were shown how to make simmons.

 We used one as a skipping rope...
... it was great fun!
Victorian costumes
 Making flour


 Grinding the oats.


Looking at the peats.
Looking at Victorian objects.
 We learned about the weaving loom. 
We tried to make drop scones but the fire wasn't hot enough!
