The Chapel has played an important part in local life since 1717, (current building dates from 1829). The collections reflect this with reminders of local home and working life. Displays cover spinning, weaving and dyeing which were so important in Norfolk (and this area in particular) prior to the Industrial Revolution. It is normally possible to visit the "Weaver's Loft" where members of the Worstead Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers have work in progress.

Admission FREE but donations welcome. Open from beginning of April to end of October, Tuesday evenings 7-9pm and alternate Saturdays 2-5pm - please call to check before travelling
Other times by prior arrangement (phone or email).
Museum closed on Sundays as the Chapel is used for services.
