The ALFRED WATKINS PROJECT was set up to explore and celebrate the life and work of Alfred Watkins of Hereford (1855-1935), ‘discoverer’ of leylines, pioneer photographer and antiquarian. The project will include schools’ workshops, the production of a booklet, and a six week exhibition/installation at Hereford Art Gallery and Museum.
The installation, called Just Go Straight On will combine items from the museum and library’s Watkins collection with sculptures, drawings, text recorded on cd (which can be listened to in the exhibition or taken out into the city) and film projection including recently identified footage c.1910.
