Title edit
Avoncroft Museum of Historic Buildings Worcestershire Museum of Historic Buildings Worcestershire
Description edit
The Museum now has 25 historic building exhibits, as well as a further 10 exciting activities and areas of interest, including rides on a model steam railway, a beautiful wild flower meadow and orchard, and our Sensory Garden project which we hope to have completed in 2006.
The Museum was founded in 1964 following an unsuccessful attempt to prevent the destruction of a listed historic house in Bromsgrove. At the last minute, the timbers of this Tudor dwelling were rescued and stored.
This building, the Merchant's House, became the first exhibit to be restored and reconstructed at our 15 acre site on the outskirts of Bromsgrove. The site itself was provided for the Museum by the Fircroft Trust, now the Croft Trust.
