Working Weekend
Join us on the 4th weekend of the month in April, May, June, August, September & October, when the Museum team get the 'toys' out to play.
Working weekends bring our vast collection to life, giving visitors the opportunity to experience all sorts, from tractors and a flour mill, through to spinning and weaving, woodturning, vintage fire engines, buses, bicycles and more!
Content each month varies depending on the season and the availability of our skilled and knowledgeable crafts people and volunteers. They are lovely, family friendly weekends and also appeal to the steam and engines specialists and enthusiasts who love nothing more than a cuppa and a catch up to talk shop with our volunteers.
Welcome, Come in and Explore!

Help support Rural Life Living Museum
If you are a UK taxpayer and you make a donation that is over 10% greater than the admission price, the Government will give us an extra 25% on top of your entrance fee, at no additional cost to you. It’s called a Gift Aid visit and makes a massive difference to charities like us. Gift Aid is of course entirely voluntary. If you are a UK Tax payer and would like to add the donation and Gift Aid to your visit, then please select "Include Donation with my Purchase" below.
