Tenbury Museum is housed in Goff's School, a small Victorian school building in Tenbury Wells, and tells the story of the town's development as a market town, once allegedly described by Queen Victoria as her 'Little Town in the Orchard'. You can explore varied collections covering domestic and rural life through objects, images and sound, and the museum also runs a programme of talks throughout the year, with group visits available by arrangement. It suits those with an interest in local history and makes an easy addition to a visit to Tenbury. The museum is open Tuesday to Saturday from April to October, with assistance dogs welcome and other dogs allowed at the steward's discretion. For a wider stay, there are 22 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays, with Ludlow station 6.7 miles away.
