I wish I took pictures, only £5 to get in, a fabulous hidden gem. A 500 year old manor house, filled with interesting donated items, from dolly tubs to cameras, butter makers to identity cards. No refreshments available but please go to Bakewell, enjoy the fabulous area, then head to the church on the hill to see this lovely museum.
