This museum showcases a unique collection of crafts and trades that were once common in rural England, featuring exhibits on woodworking, metalworking, and other traditional skills. The museum is housed in a restored 17th-century barn and offers a glimpse into the region's industrial heritage.
The Court Barn Museum celebrated the legacy of the prominent artists, designers and craftspeople who moved from the East End of London to Chipping Campden in 1902 to create the present vibrant artist community. Set in an restored barn.
This is s hidden gem of a museum, at the end of Chipping Campden. Its dedicated to the arts and crafts people who lived in the area. Its small, basically one large downstairs room but has a lot of interesting items and information on them and the makers. There was another small exhibit about the modern day equivalent of this type of work. It's run by volunteers but there was a curator on site if you had questions they couldn't answer. There's a small shop selling items made by local artists and craftspeople. At time of visit it was PS7.00 pp (July 2023) this gave you a year tickets and a two for one offer for another local museum.
A small exhibition about the short lived craftsmanship school in Chippin Campden and other crafts people who were based in this town.
Haven't actually been in the museum for sometime, though frm memory we enjoyed it. Chipping Camden generally is worth a visit any time. And the 400 year old textiles on display in the church are amazing.
Small but detailed museum with very helpful and informative staff
Small but very well presented history of Arts and Crafts from the area. Very knowledgeable team of staff and volunteers. Very interesting displays and exhibition.
