SIR — The proposed theme for displays at Minehead Museum for 2016 is Entertainment and Leisure in Minehead.

We are looking for people with memories of the Regal Cinema, Queens Hall, Gaiety Theatre, town band, carnival, choral society and any other performances given in the town.

We should like to interview such people with a view to playing excerpts in the museum but if you would prefer to just tell us what you remember this would help.

Also, if you have any relevant programmes, advertising posters or reviews which you could either loan or give to the museum, these would be very much appreciated.

We wonder whether anyone has any recordings of local artistes such as Mary Redfern or the town band?

Our current exhibition of Minehead Traders, is open from 10am to 4pm daily except Mondays at the museum attached to the Beach Hotel, and is due to end in November when we shall begin putting together items for the new displays next year.

Please telephone 01643 704683, email [email protected] or write to me c/o Minehead Museum, Beach Hotel, The Avenue, Minehead, if you feel you can help.

Caroline Giddens,

Trustee,

Minehead Museum.
