Overview

The Weald & Downland Living Museum – a hidden gem in the South East, quintessentially British in a picture perfect setting. It is a museum for those who want to see, touch and even smell what life was really like for people living in years gone by. Whether you are 5 or 95 there is something for everyone! Stewards at the houses and around the Museum can tell you all about the Museum and the collection of historic buildings. Demonstrations and activities vary daily. Staff and volunteers love to be asked questions and are easy to spot as they all wear turquoise lanyards.  The Museum is an open air museum. Access around the site is on rural surfaces; mainly rolled or loose chippings, which are in keeping with the nature of the site and buildings. Some paths are cobbled and their surfaces may cause difficulty for visitors who use a wheelchair or have impaired mobility.  Enjoy waterside dining at the Museum’s café, with fantastic views across the mill pond. The café is open from 10:00 and has seating available inside and outside on the decking area. A range of sandwiches, hot food, snacks and cakes alongside hot and cold drinks are available. Last order for hot food is at 15:00.
