Welcome!
The Museum has told the extraordinary stories of ordinary people since 1936. We care for our collection of over 40,000 everyday objects, which evoke the diverse daily lives of those living in this region over the last 300 years. We are open six days a week during term time and seven days a week during the school holidays.
We will be closed for the festive period from 24 December to 27 December 2024 inclusive, and will be open from 28 December to 30 December 2024 inclusive. We will be closed from 31 December 2024 to 1 January 2025, and will be open as normal from 2 January 2025.
We can’t wait to see you!
