If you are planning on travelling distance to attractions, we would recommend that you contact the venues directly in advance to avoid disappointment.

If you, or any of your party have a new persistant cough, or develop a fever of 38C, we would instead advise you to use the NHS's dedicated website for professional advice.

The House on Crutches Museum

A timber-framed medieval long hall whose jetty overhangs 'The cobbles' below in such a way as to need propping up on 'Crutches'. The collections reflect the history of Bishops Castle from 1086, when the Normans established a castle and a plantation town here, through to the early part of this century. Many of the objects on display have played a colourful role in the making of this small Marches town.
