Located in the library, this interestign collection reflects Purton's long heritage from Neolithic times to the modern day. Of particular note is a comprehensive collection of agricultural hand tools and dairy equipment — evidence of the village's past reliance on the land.
Watch out for the Mini-Museum Detective in the main library who introduces younger children to the museum.
