History, Nature & Curiosity in the Heart of Stroud

Step into Stroud’s rich past at the Museum in the Park, set within the stunning grounds of Stratford Park. Housed in a beautiful Grade II listed mansion, the museum brings the story of Stroud and the surrounding district to life through more than 4,000 fascinating objects.

Explore everything from dinosaur bones and historic paintings to one of the world’s very first lawnmowers. Alongside the permanent collections, the museum hosts a programme of exhibitions, displays, events and hands-on family activities throughout the year.

Make a day of it by wandering the award-winning walled garden, browsing locally sourced gifts in the shop, or relaxing with a cuppa in the café. With so much to see and do, and free entry (donations welcome), Museum in the Park is a must-visit attraction in Stroud.
