Aylsham Heritage Centre is a small museum in the Norfolk town of Aylsham, part of Broadland, run by a registered charity. Its current exhibition explores the town's historic Market Place, and throughout the year there's a calendar of talks, walks, craft activities and family events to enjoy. If you're staying nearby, you can also book a bespoke guided walk around the town. It's best suited to those interested in local history and heritage, families and group visitors. The centre is open from early March to late November, Monday to Friday mornings and early afternoons, with Saturday opening on the first Saturday of the month. With 45 bookable places to stay within 5 miles, it makes an easy addition to a Norfolk break, and North Walsham station is 5.7 miles away for those arriving by train.
