The collection from Botanic Gardens Museum moved to The Atkinson in 2012. We will be bringing some items out from our stores that showcase Sefton’s history and the everyday lives of our residents. Can you guess what they are and who may have used them?

Heritage Open Days returns 11-20 September 2026.
Heritage Open Days is England’s largest community led festival of history and culture, involving thousands of local volunteers and organisations. Every year in September it brings people together to celebrate their heritage, community and history. Stories are told, traditions explored, and histories brought to life. It’s your chance to see hidden places and try out new experiences – and it’s all FREE.
