Being a resident of Greenloaning and having hiked all around the local area, the crowning moment was putting all of that history together during a visit of this lovingly maintained building which is absolutely packed with the history I craved to put words into the landscape.

There's something for everyone in this little museum. Kids will love hunting for the knitted mice hiding in the various rooms, and the rest of us will enjoy learning more about local history.

Well worth a visit; the welcome was warm, we spent a good 1-1.5 hours here and our children learned a lot about the history of the town and its buildings.
