Victorian life was full of poisons – from arsenic and strychnine to cyanide. Roll up those lacey sleeves to delve beyond the beauty into the more dangerous side of the Victorian household with Farm House Museum curator Allison Sheridan. In conjunction with the current exhibition "Women’s Domestic Artistries: 1860-1910."
