Ledbury Heritage Centre
"A stroll up Church Lane is a walk through history, and right at the top is the Old Grammar School which houses the Heritage Centre, the perfect place to find out more about Ledbury's wealth of historic buildings.Recently updated displays outline the development of the town, and panoramas of the High Street and The Homend take you back in time, listing what all the shops and offices were right back to the 18th century.At one end of the building there is a magnificent chimney and the remains of a water course, plus displays telling you more about the history of schooling - and some graffiti from past pupils! But what was the purpose of the chimney or the water course?"

Fascinating museum on the history of the wonderful ancient buildings In Ledbury. Very knowledgeable volunteers who were passionate about the history of the area. Went above and beyond to explain about some of the children who went to the old grammar school and what they became years after they left. History brought to life of the normal people who lived in the area in the 18th and 19th century. Situated up a stunning cobbled lane from the main road up to the church. A step back in time.

An ancient location with two small museums and a pub and the beautiful St Michael's & All Angels church to reward your walk up it.
A quick visit. A good potted history of the town. More to it than I thought. On hand was a helpful guide/volunteer. I especially liked the vista of shops in the main road with details of what they had been at various years in the past. Fascinating.
One part stood out for me and that was the list of businesses that had been in the shops since they were built, a real time travel.
Very interesting place . Showing how Ledbury used to be in the past and the present . Also the heritage Centre building has a interesting history
Well worth a visit when in ledbury
