Visitors to the Victorian Villa in Wellington will get an insight into some of the exquisite embroidery worn at Westminster Abbey and can browse through souvenir newspapers. The 'Thread Through History' exhibition is housed in Miss Lander's former bedroom and embroidery workshops are planned throughout the year.
