Nice little museum, run by friendly volunteers. It might be small, but it is full of local history and stories. Great introduction to Bruton. And so nice to chat to the volunteer lady when we visited. We stayed for an hour as we found so many interesting things. Thank you!

There is a very small museum in the town, but it's interesting with artifacts and information about the town going back to the Saxon times. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
A single ever changing exhibition showcasing a nice mix of Bruton history and more contemporary exhibits such as the current lock-down one. First class guides and a nice browse through Bruton and the surrounding history.
This is a kooky museum telling the story of Bruton. There are a mixture of permanent and temporary displays, some with better information than others. There's a small shop with gifts and books.
