New look for "Old Hornie"

One of the most popular and memorable parts of the Museum is the upstairs gallery where a large goat headed creature sits.  He is nicknamed "Old Hornie" and has been a feature of the Museum from its early days.  We are very excited to announce that he will be going through another re-invention when we refurbish the top gallery of the Museum (his domain!)

He used to wear white...


For many years, he has worn red...

Now he will wear a new robe, which is green (see photos below of the robes).






The small tunic to the right will go under the larger robe.

And he's getting new legs too!
