History
Market Lavington Village Museum
(entry from 24 hour museum website) which says:
"The home of the Museum is the Old Schoolmaster's House, built in 1846, which illustrates
village life and work mainly from Victorian times to the present day. Market Lavington has
had professional photographers since 1880 and their efforts record every aspect of farms,
malting, brick making, transport and gardening as well as highlights of village life.
Such records bring to life the exhibits, including a fine collection of clothes and needlework."
