Summary
Workshops comprising Forge, Carpenters Shop, Bricklayers Yard and Painter and Decorators. The copper tools in the Workshop are Victorian, all the other tools and equipment were specially made as working scale models by John Weston Thomas from Wales, who also made the settings. An old fashioned bicycle, found later in a curio shop, adds a nice touch to the bricklayers yard.
