The biggest country life collection in the south

The Rural Life Centre is a museum of village life founded by Madge and Henry Jackson in 1973. Since that time it has grown to occupy ten acres of field and woodland and the collection of around 40,000 artefacts is now housed in purpose built and reconstructed historic rural buildings.The displays reflect the dramatic changes in country living during the years between 1800 and 1960
