A BROMSGROVE open air museum is holding a special weekend for dog lovers.

A dog day weekend is being held at Avoncroft Museum on Saturday and Sunday, January 3 and 4.

Well-behaved dogs on leads are always allowed in the grounds of the Stoke Heath museum but especially during this weekend.

There will be a dog-themed trail to occupy younger visitors and every dog will receive a free treat.

The museum is open between 10.30am and 4pm.

Among Avoncroft's attractions are the National Telephone Kiosk Collection, the windmill field and the traditional cider and perry orchard.
