This tour will explore items in the museum that tell us a bit more about what were the essentials for working people of late Victorian Oxford and how they got hold of them.
Our guides will take you on their personalised highlights tour around the Museum, lasting 30-45 minutes with time for questions at the end.
Tours take place at least once a week. Each tour has a capacity of 10 people. We recommend the tours for adults and children aged 12+.
