GUNNERSBURY Park Museum is celebrating its 90th birthday with a free family fun day on Saturday, October 19.

Throughout the day there will be free crafts, trails, party games and performances, plus visitors can explore the diverse collections that have been curated there.

Originally opened in 1929, the museum has always traced the development of Ealing and Hounslow through the rich and varied heritage of the people who have chosen to live and work in the area.

A trail will guide families through nine decades of history, discovering some of the key items the museum has collected since 1929.
