Weald & Downland Open Air Museum

Classification Museum

DescriptionThe Museum keeps several types of farm livestock, which can be seen in various parts of the site. They are managed in a traditional way, and the main breeds are maintained in small numbers sufficient to be viable for breeding.

Set in 50 acres of beautiful Sussex countryside is a very special place to wander amongst a fascinating collection of nearly 50 historic buildings dating from the 13th to the 19th century, many with period gardens, together with farm animals, woodland walks and a picturesque lake.

Rescued from destruction, the buildings have been carefully dismantled, conserved and rebuilt to their original form and bring to life the homes, farmsteads and rural industries of the last 500 years.
