About
At the centre of every miner's home was the kitchen and at the heart would have been the range. It would provide warmth and comfort on the coldest of days, as well as generating heat to cook meals, hot water for a cup of tea or to fill a tin bath to bathe in.
Inspired by the paintings of the Ashington Group who captured these scenes of domestic life in their paintings, have a go at creating your own Victorian cooking range out of collage materials.
