Visiting

The Museum is staffed entirely by volunteers so we mostly open on selected weekends and Bank Holidays between April and November. Since 2023 we also open on three weeks in school holidays in Spring and Summer. To see when we are open, please check our events calendar here.

Recorded messages about our next open days can be heard on our Information Line: 01724 711391

We have plentiful free parking, and dogs on a SHORT lead are welcome.

Group visits on open days are welcome; if coming by coach, please let us know in advance so we can arrange parking.

We can often accommodate private visits, including catering, on other dates. Please visit our Private and Group Visits page for more information.

 

WANT TO BRING A VINTAGE VEHICLE TO AN OPEN DAY?

We’re always glad to see owners of vintage cars, motorcycles, buses and lorries on our open days. If you have a car club, why not make us the refreshment stop on a road run? Please note, on some open days when other events are planned you may need to make formal bookings for your vehicle(s). Please let us know in advance so we can reserve space for you.
