- The Gordon Boswell Romany Museum is located at Clay Lake near the town of Spalding in Lincolnshire, just off the A16. It is a unique experience for everyone with a large covered facility housing the UK’s finest collection of Romany vardos (Gypsy caravans), carts and harnesses.
The museum was started as a tribute to Silvester Gordon Boswell, a Romany gypsy, scrap metal merchant and horse trader. He was the author of 'The Book of Boswell: Autobiography of a Gypsy', which contains a family tree and photographs of their nomadic lifestyle.
After Silvester Gordon Boswell's death in 1977, the scrap metal yard in Spalding was purchased by his son, Gordon Boswell, who created a museum as a tribute to his father. The Gordon Boswell Romany Museum has one of the world's largest collections of Vardos (traditional Romany caravans) as well as photographs and sketches covering over 150 years of British Romany history.
It's so nice to hear from nice people who don't judge and racist towards us it's lovely thankyou God bless you on your long journey kushty bok to you
My partner is an Australian and I'm American, both retired art teachers here in Australia ... I moved down under in 1979 after 9 years US Army. I used to be s Panel beater and pinstriped hundreds of Vans and motorcycles, plus airbrush murals. My partner went with her sister on a holiday (I had medical issues ... Agent Orange) as her family was from Scotland and she visited your museum ... it looks amazing! I wish you would post some more detail photos... Thank you.
Now they travel a big beautiful motorhomes. And they blend right in. They are hard to spot. To all my Romani people out there stay healthy and happy.
Wonderful! Gordon Boswell created this museum in remembrance of his father. Brilliant. And, the Bach musical accompaniment was also brilliant. Thank you.
