Discover Retford

Museum Tours

Guided tour by the Friends of Bassetlaw Museum. The tours will focus on the Museum building, its history from its construction in the 1780s through to the present day, and the stories of the families that owned it.

Invisible Light Exhibition

Alan Withington image

Images created with a hidden meaning using ultraviolet (UV) light, which is invisible to most people, have gone on show at Bassetlaw Museum.

‘The Invisible Light’ exhibition features photos of well-loved places Alan Withington has captured over the past five years using long exposure times, ranging from 45 minutes to over four months.

Retford Christmas lights

The Christmas cheer will be returning to Retford this year, with stalls including Christmas crafts, food stalls alongside the regular market. Lots of entertainment around the town centre and on the main stage, and Santa will be in his grotto.
