Broadway Museum and Art Gallery sits in a Grade II* listed building on the High Street in Broadway, Wychavon, Gloucestershire, and tells the story of the village through changing exhibitions. You can see a Willard Wigan microscopic sculpture exhibition, learn about 8,000 years of local history uncovered near Badsey Brook, and view a newly acquired John Singer Sargent portrait. Families are well catered for with a sensory room, craft and roleplay activities, and a wombat trail, while events like butter churning and guided tours add variety. It's open Monday to Saturday, 10am–4.30pm, though wheelchair access is currently limited due to the historic building. The nearest railway station is Honeybourne, 4.6 miles away, and there are 32 bookable places to stay within 5 miles for those planning an overnight visit.
