What to expect

Timescape Exhibition is an exciting interactive visitor and education centre, to inspire curriculum linked learning about the landscape, past, present and future. Put on your lab coat and enter the Climate Lab, where you can take part in experiments to explore how the landscape formed. Become a detective and inspect the Iron Age and Roman skeletons to discover how they lived, or take the role of an ecologist to investigate how our actions will affect the habitats of the future, what could the landscape look like in 2080?

Make the decisions that will shape the future, gain a ‘hands on’ understanding of sustainability and work alongside scientists. Whether you are interested in the rare wildlife of our nature reserve, amazing archaeological finds or possible futures of this area, Timescape Exhibition lets you discover the past and explore future.
