We will be opening for our 2021 Season on Thursday 24th June. We will initially be open from Thursday-Sunday plus Bank Holiday Mondays. The Museum is housed in one of a group of late 17th century buildings overlooking the beautiful Exe Estuary. Visitors can enjoy the furnished period rooms of the original Merchant’s House and the Sail Loft with displays giving a timeline of the town’s general history. Much of the Museum’s focus is on Topsham’s maritime history, with its role as a trade port and ship building centre. Exhibits also include unique historic river craft, local trades and organisations, wildlife of the Exe Estuary and memorabilia of the film star Vivien Leigh. And there is a superb Tea Room and lovely Tea Garden for cream teas, coffee and cakes, and ice cream. Market Gardens in Topsham and the surround area is our 2021 Exhibition.
Over the years I have been to Topsham Museum many times and taken a wide variety of friends. Some have known Topsham well, others never been here before. The Museum, which is entirely run by volunteers and free to visit, is a treasure trove of artifacts and has items of interest for everyone. It is quite small and well laid out so is easy to get around - and, after your visit don’t forget to sample a cream tea or a piece of cake (all home made) and look at the shop which has some lovely gifts

The hall has been home to the historic guild of Exeter's ancient cloth trade since the 15th century. The Incorporation of Weavers, Fullers and Shearman has been in continuous occupation of the hall since 1471 and has now opened the hall to the public to share the story of the ancient cloth industry that built Exeter.
