Museum Store Berkhamsted
« on: Friday 15 June 12 21:39 BST (UK) »
Can anyone tell me anything about the Dacorum Heritage Trust/Museum Store in Berkhamsted?  The website says visits are by appointment but does not really indicate what there is to see.

ETA:

Ofcourse as soon as you post a thread like this, you discover what you are looking for.  ::)
I just found a Youtube video which gave me the information I was seeking.

They have updated their website recently with videos showing what it is like.  Isobel, who I have been communicating with, is very helpful if you are planning a visit and looking for items pertaining to a particular site or event and will also send you pdf files (for a fee), on particular topics.

It is a place you can visit, but you need to make an appointment.  Contact Isobel (her email/phone number should be on the website) and if she has enough time she will pull out items specific to your interests.  I didn't end up making it there myself (I was unfortunately with 3 others who didn't want to go) but she will also make up PDF files to send to you, which I intend to do.
We did wander through Berkamsted and it is a great little town.
