Totnes Museum is now closed to the public until the Tuesday late night shopping events in December. We'll be open from 4pm to 8pm on December 10th and 17th. Call in and have a look round, maybe buy a raffle ticket for our beautifully decorated Christmas cake or treat yourself to an Elizabethan Pomander making kit from our shop!

Keep checking the website for details.

 There will be behind the scenes work to do during the closed season. Let us know if you're interested in this.

 We'd love to welcome you to our band of volunteers!

Tended by the wonderful volunteers from Totnes Gardens, this is a fantastic place to come and enjoy nature.
