We have an extensive library of books relating to Sir Robert Peel, his family, contemporary statesmen and events so can usually assist with enquiries from students, history groups etc.
We have in the past visited local schools in Tamworth as part of the National Curriculum subject relating to 'important local people'. It always surprises us how little is known, even by adults, about Sir Robert Peel- a statesman having at least 20 statues of him situated around the Country, including one inside Westminster Abbey and another just outside in Parliament Square! Unfortunately, advancing age and retirements mean that we cannot now service schools, but are doing our best to find younger, fitter members to take over what has always been regarded as an important and enjoyable activity.
