Our new ""Artifact of the Week"" series takes you into the vault of Dundas Museum and Archives to examine some of the fascinating objects we have in our permanent collection.

The first in our ""Artifact of the Week"" series, this video takes a look at a rare set of objects we have in our collections. These child's work clogs were donated to the museum in 1958 by the Law family. They were handmade circa 1895 and were worn by Clara Dolphin, a member of the Law family, in the Lancashire Cotton Mills where she and other members of the family worked.

Join us every Wednesday for a new ""Artifact of the Week"" and let us know what artifacts or types of objects you would like to learn more about!
