Chard Museum to Reopen 18 April

The Chard Museum is at present closed for the winter and will reopen on Monday 18 April 2011.

The Museum & Heritage Centre exhibitions have been expanded and improved steadily over the years and contain several collections of national importance including those of John Stringfellow (1799-1883), an early pioneer of powered flight, and James Gillingham (1839-1924) who was an important maker of artificial limbs.

Chard Museum is a registered charity (No. 270186) set up in 1970. It is managed by a group of Trustees who, like all the workers involved with the Museum, are unpaid volunteers.

Chard Museum and Heritage Centre is open from Monday 18th April 2011 to Saturday 29th October 2011. It is open from 10.30 to 4.30, Monday to Friday and from 10.30 to 1.00 on Saturday. Admission is £3 for adults with free entry for accompanied children.
