We have now published our list of open days for 2026, starting on Sunday 26th April. We open at 11am and close at 3pm.
Admission is still free but donations are still welcome. Dogs are welcome too, however this is at the owners discretion due to steep stairs.
Unfortunately, due to the age and layout of the building, disabled access is limited to the ground floor, but this does include a 6 inch (150mm) step at the main entrance. If you haven’t visited us, we hope to see you there.
Our 2025 season is coming to an end soon, just three open days left this year. We are open today, Sunday 28th September, between 11am and 3pm. Entry is still free but donations are always welcome.
