Ware Museum is an independent museum opened in 1986 in the former Victorian lodge house of Ware Priory. The museum is entirely volunteer run. Refurbished in 2001, following a Heritage Lottery Fund grant, permanent displays show a timeline of Ware's Social, Industrial and Archaeological History from pre-historic times to WWII. In 2007 a second HLF grant allowed the museum to be further enlarged in preparation for the return of the Great Bed of Ware on loan from the V&A during 2012 with the help of an HLF grant. The Bed has retruned to the V&A now but we still have a reproduction of a bedpost, that can be touched, and new displays.
