Preston Hall Museum

Standing in over 100 acres of magnificent parkland, Preston Hall was built in 1825. It was opened as Stockton's first public museum in 1953. Situated on the A135 - Yarm Road, Stockton, the museum is well sign posted. It has level access to the ground floor and Victorian Street and has toilet facilities for disabled patrons.

The museum provides a wonderful opportunity to explore domestic life of the past with the many recreated period rooms ranging from an 1880s parlour to a 1960s bedsit. There is also a recreation of a typical Victorian street where demonstrations of traditional crafts can be seen.In addition to these year round displays, the museum offers a varied programme of changing exhibitions and special events.
