Topsham Museum is one of the “must go to” destinations in Topsham. At 25 Strand the Merchants house recreates life in 1700 while the sail loft not only includes information about HMS Terror found in the arctic in 2016, but also an amazing model of Topsham in 1900.

Be intrigued by the period kitchen with memories of rationing and 1950s and every year there is a special exhibition to see.

The Topsham Museum Tea Room open 2-4.30pm between April and October ( but not on Tuesday or Friday) has irresistible homemade cake, cream teas and drinks.  The staff are friendly and take great pride in serving you and telling you about the museum and town. There is seating both in the museum itself or outside in the lovely garden.
