The East Grinstead Museum isn’t your average, dusty old snooze-fest. No, it’s more like Indiana Jones got lost on the High Street, fell into a treasure chest of local history, and decided to open a museum instead of raiding ancient tombs. Tucked behind the historic High Street, this place has everything you never knew you needed to know about East Grinstead – from ancient relics to World War I artefacts (yes, they’re still kicking around) and even medical tools that look like they belong in a Victorian horror film.
And hey, it’s not just old stuff crammed into glass cases either. This place is basically a scrapbook of the town’s best bits, with photos, paintings, and stories that’ll make you go, “Wait, THAT happened here?” There’s even a quirky collection from Queen Victoria Hospital – because nothing says local history like some good ol’ medical oddities.
Visitors rave about it. It’s the hidden gem you’ll want to tell your mates about (once you stop giggling at the old medical equipment). Plus, the staff are so friendly, you’d think they were paid in compliments. Oh, and did we mention it’s FREE? Yes, absolutely zero pounds to wander through time like Doctor Who on a budget. So, grab your free parking permit and pop by from Wednesday to Sunday – because history’s a lot more fun when it’s weird.
