Our Museum officially opened for the first time to the public on Saturday 5th September 1970.

There were seven exhibits for the first visitors to see:

Winkhurst
Littlehampton Gallery
Catherington Tread Wheel
Upper Beading Toll House
Charcoal Burners’ Camp
Saw Pit
Saxon Weavers’ Hut.
Now with over 50 exhibits to explore we will be marking this special weekend with daily interpretation around the 40 acre site, along with our annual Threshing weekend demonstrations.

It will also be the last week of our special exhibition ‘Through the Lens‘ which displays a range of photographs of the Museum, many taken by our founder Roy Armstrong. Roy captured the Museum from its humble beginnings and during each stage of its growth. The photographs on display at this exhibition shows not only the Museum developing over time, but also highlights just how important individuals, both staff and volunteers, have been in the history of our Museum.

We are not responsible for external event tickets and recommend when booking any tickets for events that you take ticket insurance if available.

All events are attended at your own risk.
