Congleton Museum

'Formed in 1985 by a group of local history enthusiasts to pull together as much as possible of the history of Congleton and to explore ways of exhibiting it to the community. It was 2002 before the trust managed to open the museum in the former police station next to the Town Hall ... Friends are automatically members of Congleton Museum Trust, giving you the right to vote at the annual general meeting and elect the trustees who manage the museum. You also get invitations to talks held in the education room, access to library and research facilities and a regular newsletter.'
