Book Week Display

Hundreds of books and models depicting scenes from books with a historical flavour were on display in the Suter Art Gallery to mark book week in Nelson. A steady stream of children, most of them accompanied by one or more parents, visited the week-long exhibition. Some of the models, in particular, were excellent and were obviously the result of much long and painstaking work.
