In the latter part of the 19th century and the early 20th century trade union power forced through industrial legislation resulting in half day closing on Saturdays. This combined with a rise in wages, and more disposable income, meant the workers had increased leisure time and more money to spend on it. This exhibition looks at the historical background to some of the activities taking place in Runnymede, which now form part of the leisure industry.
