We’re excited to announce that our Museum of Rural Life will have been open for 25 years on 10th & 11th May 2025.

To celebrate this amazing milestone, our group of amazing volunteers are hosting a day of fun and informative celebrations.

We will be having horse and cart rides throughout the weekend too with a lunchtime talk about the history of the breeds! The Suffolk Punches are category A Rare Breed and there will be a Percheron and a Boulonnais.

Fun activities for children, VE Day presentation and local crafters blanket display. Why not test your museum knowledge with our quiz. We will also be having a Store Room Sale too, with lots of historic and bespoke items to purchase on the day. Visit the stall over the weekend to see the collection. Blacksmith demonstrations and much more.

Do pop in to say hello and step back in time by visiting for free our Waterperry Museum of Rural Life and celebrate this day with us.

More information coming very soon.
