Time-travel from Palaeolithic to present day Stockport to experience the town’s entire history under one roof.

Explore the fantastic finds from Mellor Iron Age hilltop settlement, life in medieval times, the thriving textile industry of the Victorian era as well as the impact of World War I.

The doors are now open to our brand new family gallery which has been designed to help imaginations run wild, it is a space where anything is possible.

In partnership with illustrator Becca Hall, the museum has been reimagined for younger visitors.

A new character, Museum Mouse, has been created to take people on a gallery adventure to discover favourite objects from the Museum’s collection.

Visitors of all ages will be able to learn about everything from Ancient Egypt, animals and nature to toys and shopping.
