As we live locally to Avoncroft Museum we decided to avoid the long drive on a hot Bank Holiday Monday. We were not disappointed as there was loads to see and do. A food and crafts fair for the adults, willow craft making, victorian swings, animals, pony rides, to name but a few, for the children, not to mention the... More

Good mix of buildings and telephone boxes but if you're looking for anything other than these then it may leave you slightly disappointed. As I reiterate it seems a slight mash up of things that they could buy to exhibit, I mean you can go from an Edwardian Cafe to a showmans carriage. Overall it is fairly good for the... More

This is an odd collection of different buildings that have been saved and preserved over the last 40 years. We enjoyed it. It had variety and interest and kept you wondering what is the next ting to be displayed. Dr Who fanatics will enjoy the Telephone Box collection where you can actually call other boxes.

Felt that some of the buildings were looking rather tired. Had gone especially to see the toll house.

My Wedding Reception was held in the main 'Barn/Hall' at Avoncroft Museum in April 2012. Me and my Husband loved that it was a bit 'different' from your standard Wedding Reception Venue, our guests were intrigued by the old buildings etc, and it gave guests something to do/look at whilst Photographs were getting taken - some great photos to be...

Pretty interesting place if you like looking at old buildings. There's a good collection of old telephone boxes through the ages, an old chapel, a post wartime prefab house, windmill and plenty else besides. It's especially good for children to explore and dogs on leads are also welcome. We didn't try it this time but there is a recreated Edwardian... More

Had a smashing cream tea and spent a couple hours among the restored buildings. Well laid out, interesting history provided for each structure. If you are in Bromsgrove, go here.
