MINIATURE objects that people may not usually notice are to be the subject of a new museum display.

Trowbridge Museum will be exhibiting objects such as a disc the size of a one pence with the Lord's Prayer inscribed on it, tiny Victorian toys and a pocket watch containing a tiny advert for the manufacturer.

Curator Clare Lyall said: "The 21st century is very much geared towards everything being fast and immediately obvious and this exhibition is aiming to make people slow down their pace and be aware of what they've been missing."

The exhibition, called Take a Closer Look, will open on June 18.
