The prominent museum building on the Square was built for William Thorne, in 1872. Thorne was a quarry owner and operator of the horse-drawn railway to Fremington Quay.
Meet the staff and volunteers who help care for and run out Grade II listed building and its collections.
The MBND Trust was set up in 2014 with the aim of supporting the museum in its duties of curation and education.
The Museum was established in 1989, bringing together the collections of the North Devon Athenaeum and the Borough Museum in St. Anne’s Chapel.
The Museum looks to reinforce the belief that the collections belong to North Devon and to promote a feeling of ownership of the same.
Museum Manager Alison Mills is Museum Development Officer for North Devon and Torridge and can provide support for your museum.
