Heritage

Here at Weston Museum, we are passionate about heritage.  We work in partnership with a range of organisations, such as the South West Heritage Trust, North Somerset Council and local heritage groups.  We work hard to produce community gallery exhibitions that explore our fascinating local history through objects and photographs.   

We are extremely fortunate to have Jane Hill working as our Heritage & Community Officer.  Jane has a depth and breadth of experience from her long career in the heritage field, including working at the South West Heritage Trust and Historic England.

We also benefit greatly from our superb team of volunteers who undertake local history research and support the exhibition programme, as well as giving talks.
