Using collections rich in archeology and costume, with childhood and local historical material, the museum tells the story of East Dorset. Period rooms from a 17th century hall to the working Victorian kitchen, show how life and work has changed in this historic town house. There are 10 galleries to explore and a beautiful walled garden, gift shop and tea room.
Steeped in history this mediaeval building has undergone many changes over time. Adjacent to the building is a Herb and Physic garden which has been developed in recent years by local volunteers. Please note this museum is currently only open to the public during August each year.
