Bishopsteignton Heritage (formerly Museum of Rural Life)
Bishopsteignton Heritage provides a unique facility which interprets the story of the Bishopsteignton area through its heritage and enables the local community and others to become involved in enjoyable learning opportunities by sharing experiences, including digital and physical artefacts, events and information.

We are situated in the Community Centre, which was the Old School House, on the corner of Shute Hill and Fore Street, opposite the Ring of Bells pub.
Information
Our aim is to tell the “Story of Bishopsteignton”, its history, geology and geography, its people, businesses, homes and gardens through a mixture of digital and physical artefacts, events and information. To this end we will consider the village itself as the “museum” with the Heritage Centre at its heart.
