Made by the River – Special Thetford Exhibition

Made by the River tells the engaging story of the town’s old riverside industries from the 1800s to the 1980s. Displays featuring evocative names such as Fison’s fertilizers, Burrell’s steam engines and Bidwells brewery conjure up the sights, sounds and smells of the town’s rich industrial heritage.

The exhibition is being delivered as part of the Brecks Fen Edge and Rivers Landscape Partnership Scheme’s ‘Celebrating River Heritage’ Project under the ‘Industrious Rivers’ strand. It has been made possible with funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
