The oldest local structure has exhibits on maritime & railway history, agriculture & domestic life.
A quaint little museum which used to house two families at a time, has stairs to part of the exhibition which is not recommended for people with accessibility issues. However, it was interesting and very good value for money. Also, the man working there was very friendly and knowledgeable. Well worth a visit.
Excellent little museum in Lynton telling many stories of the past. Lots to see and read up on and watch out for the museum ghost Lady on the entrance is a fountain of knowledge
Lovely local museum set in middle of town and one of the oldest buildings in Lynton. PS3 for adults and 50p for kids. Well worth a visit.
We were not expecting to find a place like this in Lynton, but we spotted the sign and decided to pay a visit. Apparently the oldest domestic dwelling in town, with quirky but fascinating exhibits covering life in times past, and especially the impact of the 1952 flooding. It was made more interesting by the museum curator/caretaker who escorted us on a 30 minute tour, and brought the museum to life, and livened up the proceedings by relating the story of the dwelling's resident ghost. A nice diversion from the usual tourist activities.
Great little museum, lots of history of the local area and fascinating tales of events with the local community. Definitely worth popping in if you're in the area.
Small but very Intresting will return good information on history gentleman who was there on day made us feel welcome
