The Story of Our Town

New Temporary Display in the Main Gallery

Do You Remember the 50s & 60s

The original model switch-back fairground ride is away being restored by the talented gentlemen from Thame Shed – Thame’s very own Repair Shop. To fill the space, we have a new display in its place.

Did you or your family own a bakelite telephone – can you remember the telephone number?

How well do you remember the 50s and 60? Here are just a few more examples



Alongside this Bakelite telephone, you will find a ‘Melody Maker’ valve radio; ‘Rock around the Clock‘ with Bill Haley, a Morphy Richards pink hair dryer and a ‘Homemaker’ plate from Woolworths?

Step back in time and relive your childhood.
