Morthoe Heritage Museum

'A Chance to Explore' The Centre, set in a National Trust barn, is situated in a delightful cliff-top village. The exhibition offers fun for all ages, an historical cameo of life in this dramatic coastal setting, a fascinating presentation of local shipwrecks, and a unique opportunity to understand the history of this beautiful corner of England. Children will love the Centre's hands on games, puzzles and quiz. Illustrated and informative maps cover the best local walks amid the breathtaking scenery of the Heritage Coast - a perfect way to explore both coast and countryside at your own pace.
