The Elgood Collection - Wisbech & Fenland Museum.

www.wisbechmuseum.org.uk

Down in the basement of the lovely old Victorian Museum in Wisbech (opened in 1847), can be found one of the hidden treasures of the fens, a little known butterfly and moth collection with specimens from all over the UK. The collection was created by the late Walter Stewart Elgood (1902 –1975) then proprietor of the Elgood Brewery in Wisbech, an old Georgian brewery, the first such brewery to be built outside London, and makers of a fine pint of ale! Several large cabinets house the collection with specimens dating from the late 1800’s to the 1960’s.
Two specimens are of particular interest - Slender Burnished Brass - West Runton, 13th Oct 1959. Only (post Victorian) Norfolk record and Spotted Clover Moth – Hunstanton 1953, one of seven recorded in Norfolk in 1953. Not recorded since.
