Advisory work at The Museum of East Dorset in Wimborne

We are currently engaged in research and advisory work with the team at The Museum of East Dorset in the picturesque Wimborne Minster.

For more than 400 years, many different families owned and occupied the building adding, altering, and extending this period dwelling as fashions changed. Opened by Hilda Coles in 1962 it has been historically known as the Priests House Museum until re-opening in 2020 after a period of restoration as The Museum of East Dorset.

We have just added the museum to our portfolio of heritage locations where we advise and manage paranormal bookings. Working closely with the teams and the staff at the museum also gives us the unique opportunity to conduct our own background research.

David Goulden Said: 

"In our private research, the team has been working with locations for nearly 20 years now. We have always put the interests of the locations at the forefront of what we do. When we started I thought we would always be banging on the doors to be let into places. I am super proud that by doing the right thing by the locations and protecting their interests we have built this position of trust and are now often invited in.

Stemming from this over the last 8 years, we have organically branched out into managing the reputational heritage at 3 historic locations in Dorset as well as the visiting paranormal teams. Our role is to advise when approached by the locations and to promote a positive impression of the paranormal field to the general public. Public perception and the paranormal is something that we are very passionate about."

We are proud that these opportunities also mean that we can play a little part in generating much-needed revenue for the locations. As charities, these funds make a big contribution to their future preservation which guarantees their survival for future generations to enjoy.
