About

Hollytrees Museum is located in the beautiful grounds of Castle Park. Three centuries of fascinating toys, domestic items, costume, clocks and arts are displayed in this attractive Georgian town house, dating from 1718. 

Discover what family life was like and peek through the windows of the much loved Hollytrees Dolls House, marvel at the collection of clocks and watches by local clockmakers of the 17th-19th centuries and be transported back to your childhood with the many vintage toys and games on display.
