Ditchling Museum online: information and bookings

Since Saxon times, Ditchling has been home and workplace to generations of villagers. The museum's galleries show their work alongside objects made by craftspeople today. The museum is housed in the Victorian schoolhouse built in 1836 and extended in 1887. The school was used as a meeting place, as the venue for the Horticultural Society Flower Shows and home to the first schoolmaster. The school closed in 1983 and the site purchased by two sisters Joanna and Hilary Bourne to establish a museum to celebrate the history of this remarkable village.

Guided walks and talks about the village and Ditchling's history of arts and crafts are available for pre-booked groups of 10 or more.
