About: Pendon Museum

An Entity of Type: museum, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Pendon Museum, located in Long Wittenham near Didcot, Oxfordshire, England, is a museum that displays scale models, in particular a large scene representing parts of the Vale of White Horse in the 1920s and 1930s. The scene, under construction since the 1950s and with parts dating back earlier, was inspired by detailed research into the architecture and landscape of the vale, with some models of cottages taking hundreds of hours to complete. It was founded by the late Roye England, (an anglophile Australian who lived in England), and run jointly by the late English Model Maker, Guy Williams, (who made fifty-seven of the museum's ninety locomotives). They can be seen working together in the 1958 British Pathé short, 'Hair Thatching'.The museum is run by a group of volunteers and is open to

dbo:abstract
  • Pendon muzeum, které se nachází v Long Wittenhamu poblíž Didcotu v hrabství Oxfordshire v Anglii, je muzeem, jehož expozice se skládá z několika modelových kolejišť, z nichž za zvláštní pozornost stojí model krajiny představující části Údolí Bílého koně ve 20. a 30. letech 20. století. Scéna, která je ve výstavbě od padesátých let 20. století a obsahuje součásti z dřívější doby, byla inspirována velmi podrobným výzkumem architektury a krajiny údolí, přičemž některé modely chalup byly vytvářeny stovky hodin. Muzeum, které založil Roye England, je provozováno skupinou dobrovolníků a je otevřeno veřejnosti většinu víkendů a svátků, kromě zimy. (cs)
