ONE of Tenby Museum's 2004 presentations is the display of objects which were in common use in the past in Tenby, but are no longer seen today.
To illustrate the importance of the town as one of the foremost holiday resorts in Britain since the 19th Century, the museum will display throughout July a model of a bathing machine similar to those widely used on the local beaches, together with a recently acquired bathing costume worn by an Edwardian lady in Tenby, about 100 years ago.
In addition, as always, visitors can be photographed in a life-size model of a bathing machine designed to show how a Victorian family would dress for a dip in the sea.
The models on display were specially made for the museum by craftsman/artists John Horne and Eric Bradforth.
