Only a £3 admission charge it was well worth it, I loved the Tenterden motorbike club display, well worth a visit.

A great little museum full of local Kentish history... Well worth a visit if you are in the area and it only costs £3 for adults and children are free... Several things there to keep the children amused / engaged as well...

Neat Museum with a lot of nice exhibitions that give you a good idea of Tenterden and its history. Displaying the early times up to the more recent history and the present.

What a brilliant museum. Excellent kind staff looking after this first class museum. So many items to look at and read. One of the best museums we have revisited for a long time. 10 out of 10 guys. Will definitely go again when we visit Tenterden. What a lovely town.
