Museum of Carpet

The sound of a power loom weaving at full pelt is impressive and unforgettable, truly atmospheric! They are lucky to have not 1 but 2 working looms at the Museum of Carpet - a Wilton and an Axminster! As well as exploring the loom rooms there are informative displays and exhibits to tickle your interest too!

The galleries are temporary and change regularly so we can't tell you precisely what's on, but whatever exhibition they are showing at the time of your visit you can be sure that it's going to be high quality with hands on elements, for example for a recent exhibition on the Stretton Doctors they featured an interactive operating theatre!
