Housed in the former Town Hall, our friendly, volunteer-led Museum brings to life the town’s long and rich history, and gives the chance to explore, enjoy and be inspired by the past in and around this ancient Cotswold town. There is no entrance charge, but as a registered charity we rely on donations, so your generosity can help us to continue our work.
