The Rural Life Centre is a museum of past village life covering the years from 1750 to 1960.  It is set in over ten acres of garden and woodland and housed in purpose-built and reconstructed buildings including a chapel, village hall, cricket pavilion and schoolroom. 

Displays show village crafts and trades such as wheel wrighting, bakers, vets and many more.  An historic village playground provides entertainment for children as does a preserved narrow gauge light railway which operates on Sundays.  There is also an arboretum with over 100 species of trees from around the world.
