From cobbled streets to a seaside pier, vintage cars, an operating pub, sweet shop and more, this covered museum details life from Victorian times to the 1940s.

In the life-sized streets you’ll find buildings, shops and vehicles recreated and restored, telling the stories of how people lived, the things they used and the work they did. The milliner, saddler and ironmonger all offer a glimpse into shopping habits of the past.

In some shops you will find interpreters, dressed in authentic period costume, serving beer in the Baverstock Arms, playing a record in the gramophone shop or telling stories about the past.

For enthusiasts there is an impressive collection of restored vintage vehicles including steam lorries, cars, motorbikes, a Romany caravan and a 19th century steam-powered fire engine

The Rooftops Café serves lighter bites & main meals at reasonable prices and there is, of course, a gift shop.

If you wish to purchase sweets from the 1940s shop you will need to buy a £2 voucher at the entrance.
