Lead miners’ children had a very different education to that of today’s youngsters. We are exploring their schooling in a fascinating new exhibition by the Friends of Killhope at Killhope museum in the 2023 season. You will be astonished by the quality of the young people’s work in the pictures we’ll be showing. Do go along to Killhope and have a look for yourself. Watch this space for further details about when the exhibition opens. This plan of his school was made by John Priest when he was only ten years old!
