Moyse's Hall is a rare example of Norman
domestic architecture, now used as a museum
of local history. These pages look at the history and
architecture of the building and at the two
main collections of archaeology and local
history.
Whilst the building is described in
some detail, as befits such an unusual
building, these pages do not offer a
comprehensive catalogue of the collections.
Instead they try to provide a context for the
exhibits and to draw visitors' attention to the
most important and interesting items. The
collection is large and unfortunately it is not
possible to display all the items described in
these pages all the time. However, the
museum staff are very happy to answer
visitors' questions about the collections.
