House On Crutches Museum & Bishop's Castle Heritage Resource Centre
Bishop's Castle Heritage Resource Centre (BCHRC) houses the reserve collection of museum artefacts that are not currently on display in a humidity controlled environment. It has an extensive library of documents, maps and photographs that are used by a team of volunteer researchers who are continously adding to the stories of Bishop's Castle and the surrounding area. They also respond to queries from the public.
“One of the best town museums in Shropshire, it’s housed in a picturebook-perfect Elizabethan timber-framed building with wooden posts propping up a 17th century upstairs extension, which feels wonderfully crooked inside”
Marie Kreft—travel writer, in her book Slow Shropshire
