Skeleton HERO on Public Display

The full size model of the skeleton – which the Museum 4 Watton group have named ‘Hero’ – has gone on public display. The skeleton was found during groundwork for the ‘Signals’ housing development in Watton and the full size model financed by Bennett Homes.

It may be seen at Watton Antiques and Collectables Centre at Breckland Business Park on Norwich Road (IP25 6UP), along with a small display of artifacts and literature about the Museum 4 Watton group.

The centre is open 7 days a Week from 10.00 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. and there is no charge for admission or viewing the exhibit (although any donations to the group are always gratefully received). There is an excellent tearoom as well.
