Activity Thursday
Join us every Thursday during the School Holidays for Activity Thursday – a lively day where history bursts into action!
Watch the Museum come alive as our talented team dives into crafting, making, and doing. Whether it’s creating rockets for kids, watching woodturners at work, sitting on tractors, or trying your hand at spinning and weaving – there’s something new to discover each week!
Every Activity Thursday is different, with seasonal themes and special appearances from our brilliant craftspeople and passionate volunteers. From tractors to bicycles, steam engines to fire trucks, it’s a celebration of all things mechanical, magical, and memorable.
Perfect for families, curious minds, and enthusiasts alike – and of course, there’s always time for a chat and a cake at the Market Garden Cafe
Welcome, Come in, 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.
