It's a must-see excellently restored ancient Town Hall.

Run by volunteers, informative about the town's history, worth a visit if you're in Bishop's Castle. Remember it's open on Saturdays and Sundays only. Also good place to buy some postcards. Christiaan :-) :-)

Excellent small museum with plenty of stuff for children to touch and try on. I don't mind making a good donation to places like this where staff are enthusiastic volunteers.

A very special museum full of intricate historical facts artefacts and memories from times gone by - from the Elizabethan timber frames of the house itself to the extensive social history of the breweries, crafts, community life, market, agriculture, and the no longer functioning local railway in Bishop's Castle and South West Shrophire. Most special of all were the husband and wife duo who shared their passion for and knowledge of Bishop's Castle - bringing it all to life.

Arrived to look around as per the advertised opening hours, but it was closed unfortunately. Please update your opening hours as its a bit of a trek to get there. Thanks
