As we are run entirely by volunteers, on rare occasions we may be unable to open on the above schedule, so if you are making a special journey and want to confirm we are open, please call us first on 01786 825691.

We rely on the contributions of visitors & supporters for the running costs of the Museum, which are considerable. If you'd like to help towards making sure the Museum is here for generations to come then you can become a Friend of the Museum. We also welcome donations during your visit, online here or, if you prefer, send a cheque or postal order to the Museum directly.
