There are displays on Roman, medieval and Tudor Ware. Other displays focus on industries which are particularly associated with Ware such as malting, brickmaking and the pharmaceutical industry. The town’s World War II Command Centre features displays about both World Wars and their impact on Ware.

Our garden provides an oasis of calm in the busy life of Ware town where visitors can sit underneath a gnarled apple tree, amongst the herbs grown in medieval gardens for healing purposes. A Wickham rail inspection trolley, the tiller of a river barge and the Luftmine from WWII add to the ambience.
