Delightful museum illustrating the life of the town. Much of the collection has
been donated or loaned to the museum by the local inhabitants and serves to paint
a lively picture of life in a thriving Victorian town which has had a market since
1128. There are four display rooms in this very unique early 15th century building
and the stewards are all volunteers who enjoy sharing the delight of visitors
from far and wide. Because of the nature of the
building itself there is very limited access for visitors with mobility difficulties.
The two ground floor rooms, for instance, have one step down from street level
and two steps up into the second room - so not totally impossible. The two upper
rooms are accessed by a staircase. Contact: S.Chappell
