National Trust Carriage Museum

The Carriage Museum in the stables has a vehicle for every occasion from cradle to grave. In the past carriages were as varied as cars are today: designed for long journeys, a trip to town, a day off-roading or simply a drive in the park.

Having the right type of carriage was a sign of good taste and wealth. Here at the museum there are over 40 different carriages on display, all were privately owned by people from middle-class families to earls and lords, and even Queen Victoria.
