Collections
A survey was conducted to identify relevant private and public collections
held in archives, libraries, museums and other sources.
It found a range of material about fox hunting but a
lack of material relating to the anti-hunt lobby. Melton Carnegie Museum is trying to rectify
this situation but it relies on the cooperation of groups and individuals.
For more information or to tell us about other collections
or material please contact the Keeper on tel. 0116 305 3860 or email
meltonmuseum@leics.gov.uk.
