THE Victorian era will come to life in Bromsgrove this weekend at an award-winning tourist attraction.

Visitors to Avoncroft Museum of Historic Buildings, in Stoke Heath, can enjoy a weekend of Victorian fun when the 19th Century Toll House comes to life, in style according to the organisers.

Families can visit the village and its villagers and find out how they lived and worked during the reign of Queen Victoria.

The fun runs from 10.30am to 5.30pm on Saturday July 13 and Sunday July 14.

And there will be an added attraction for visitors to the museum on Sunday - the Triumph Razor Edge Car Rally which promises a fine selection of classic cars and trade stands.

All weekend there will be woodturning demonstrations, and on Sunday only, there will be model train rides and chain and brickmaking demonstrations.
