The present black & white building, known as St Richard’s House, dates from the 1930s and consists of a very friendly and welcoming Tourist Information Centre, a fascinating permanent local history exhibition, and has a small but comprehensive range of brass rubbing plates. Then wander through the unique BBC radio room where you can learn how the Wychbold radio masts affected broadcasting history and put Droitwich on the radio.
