IIIustrated parish map

Written by Teresa Finnigan on . Posted in News.

Thanks to Redbourn Parish Council, the museum now has a supply of colourful parish maps which are on sale for £5 each.

They make lovely gifts, especially when framed, for anyone with a connection to Redbourn or those new to the village.

They are available at the Museum, where entry is free, but vitally important donations help towards our running costs of £6,000 a year.
