Welcome to the Museums and Heritage web page.

 

Heritage Services in the borough continues to be a well-loved and well-used local service. Thousands of residents each year visit the 2 historic buildings - Eastbury Manor House and Valence House Museum.

 

Valence House is particularly proud to have attracted Heritage Lottery Funding this year in preparation for a major development which will make the Museum, Local Studies Library and Archives even more enjoyable to visit for local people and those from farther afield.
