Lordly House Exhibits Opening

On Sunday, August 12th I attended the official opening of two exhibits at the Lordly House Museum in Chester. One documents "The American Connection" of residents of Chester from the United States. The other exhibit, titled "The Blandford & Area Marine Exhibit", documents how the sea has shaped the history of the Blandford area. The ribbon was cut by D'Arcy Enright of Blandford and Stewart Lindsay of Chester. Speakers Gail Smith and Alan Wilson gave excellent context to the exhibits. Both exhibits offer valuable insight into the fabric of our community. I highly recommend a visit to beautiful Lordly House Museum. Congratulations to the Chester Municipal Heritage Society and The Blandford & Area Historical Society.
