Discover Basingstoke and Deane's past, from the rich archaeological heritage beneath our feet right up to the modern day. Take a tour through the 200 years and meet Pickaxe, a 19thC scavenger scraping a living from the streets, and revisit the days of twin-tubs and teddy-boys in the 1960s sittingroom. There is always something new to see with a regularly changing programme of special exhibitions, children's quizzes, cafe and gifts.
