An abandoned village Blacksmiths. Two forges & many original tools. Transformed into a village museum, showcasing various trades local to Owston Ferry. Blacksmith demos are held on some of our open days.
Lots of local artefacts and photographs show village life from days gone by. And lots of local history if you're researching a family tree.
