The best days to visit the museum are Mondays when we are closed to the general public and Wednesdays when you can use the Pepperpot, Godalming's historic town hall as a base. The Pepperpot is directly opposite the museum and has recently been refurbished with its own toilet and kitchen. There is restricted access at both sites, with the first floors accessible only by stairs - please discuss your requirements with us.
