About This Museum

Would you believe this charming little museum started life as a farm labourer's cottage in the 1700s? Tucked away on Vicarage Road, Pitstone Green is a proper time capsule of rural life. It doesn't just tell you history; it lets you wander through it, from a reconstructed blacksmith's forge to a vintage print shop. You can almost hear the clatter of old farm machinery and smell the coal smoke.

Collection Highlights

Look for the magnificent 1930s Foster threshing machine and the beautifully preserved village wheelwright's shop. Don't miss the collection of everyday oddities, like the heavy flat irons and dairying equipment that show just how much hard work went into simply living.

Visitor Information

It's run by wonderfully passionate volunteers, so check their website for opening times as they can be seasonal. It's the perfect sort of place for a lazy Sunday afternoon poke about.

Architecture & Building

A quaint cluster of traditional Buckinghamshire farm buildings and cottages made from local stone and brick, with a classic clay-tiled roof.
