Tenterden & District Museum Station Road, Tenterden, Kent TN30 6HN Telephone: 01580 764310 web www.ukpages.net/kent/museum.htm Opened in 1976, the Tenterden Museum is housed in an attractive weatherboard building originally built in 1850 as a stable and store. Other buildings reflecting the vernacular industrial style of the 19th century are nearby. The collections are broad in type, ranging from agriculture and industry to textiles and archives, with very strong potential as a learning resource for local history. The museum enjoys an excellent town centre position 25 yards from the High Street bordering two large car parks, one of which has excellent toilet facilities with a summertime coach park, all en route to the Kent & East Sussex Railway Station. The "Tenterden Tapestry" is a nine-panel embroidery-collage made by local children depicting the history of Tenterden from when it was just a 'den' or clearing in the wood to today's vibrant market town.
