My husband is an archaeologist, and so we immersed our kids in his world instead of mine (I’ve yet to discover a good anti-corruption museum but always up for suggestions…no bonus points for ‘Westminster’). We spent a rainy afternoon at the wonderful Corinium Museum in Cirencester, followed by a walk/run in Cirencester Park.
