The Gordon Boswell Romany Museum
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.
