Wonderful historical building and museum. Run by Sandwell Council and some lovely volunteers. Free entry. Dog freindly Although dogs not allowed in play area or inside the house.Highly recommend !
Didn't no their was this outdoor bit but it was so nice and this little play area for the children is so nice.
What a lovely visit we've had this morning at the Oak House Museum and it was Free to visit. I wasn't expecting that much but was very surprised with the Visitors Centre which houses the cafe and a small shop. The house itself is made up of about 10 or so rooms over 2 floors as the house would have been circa 1700. There is plenty of information on displays around the house and friendly members of staff who are very informative and knowledgeable about the house. There is a lovely play area for the children at the back of the house and the garden are very well maintained. Unfortunately there is no parking so will have to park in the street which wasn't a problem as there is a boxed parking area big enough for around 6 cars next to the Oak House on Oak Road. Local museums like this need our support so we can remember our history of the area. The grounds are lovely to go and grab a drink from the cafe and sit and relax for a while. You would have to check Sandwell Museums Website for opening times but as of today I think they are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 11am to 4pm.
Nice friendly volunteers show you round this Tudor farmhouse with no pretentions It's good to see a serious take on history in its context, and its relations to today. The setting is beautiful with room for wildflowers and an outdoor children's play area.
Amazing history to see in this house. I enjoyed the tour guide who narrated the entire history of this place beautifully. Visited during the Christmas season , it was a great experience to be in the 400 year house of Turton.
