The building itself is a time capsule. Restored by Abbey restorer Thomas Collins in the 19th century and donated to the town as a museum by an ‘anonymous gentleman’ in the 20th. It is unique, full of original features, eclectic and eccentric.

You're welcome to visit the museum, but please note that your experience will be unusual, as the museum will be in a state of transition for several months owing to the restoration that has just been completed.
