The Weald & Downland Living Museum holds over 50 rescued historic buildings set across countryside grounds. You step inside period homes, watch traditional craftspeople at work, and see working demonstrations. There are seasonal events including living history weekends, heritage craft activities like charcoal burning, and threshing weekends. The museum describes itself as a hands-on 'Do Touch' adventure where children can explore the great outdoors, meet friendly animals, and discover 1,000 years of rural life. A visit typically takes 3–4 hours to see everything and includes a café.
