Museum of Croydon has produced a BHM learning pack, which includes information on English composer Samuel Coleridge Taylor, Stormzy and Sislin Fay Allen, Britain’s first black female police officer.
Following guidance from our Health and Safety and Public Health teams, we are delighted to announce that the Archives Research Room, now under the management of Croydon Libraries, will re-open by appointment on Wednesdays and Fridays from 12 May 2021.
Initially, appointments will be available from 11am to 1pm and from 2pm to 4pm. You can book an appointment by emailing archives@croydon.gov.uk, providing details of the items you wish to view and preferences for day and time of an appointment.
We will continue to answer remote enquiries and work more closely with our Libraries colleagues in an integrated way to find new ways of sharing our collections with our residents.
