Brief description

"Godalming Museum was founded in 1921 and is located opposite the Old Town Hall, affectionately known as the Pepperpot. The museum is a friendly and welcoming place for all to visit and tells the story of Godalming and the surrounding area.

Visit the Arts and Crafts Gallery, learn about Gertrude Jekyll the “mother” of English gardening and her long-time collaborator Edwin Lutyens the Architect of the Cenotaph. Our Living Landscape and Local History Galleries are full of information about the way the town has developed since prehistoric times, about Jack Phillip our famous son, the heroic radio operator of the Titanic and other notable residents from this area. Relax in our café, which serves a range of hot and cold drinks, or in our peaceful walled garden, which is designed in the style of Gertrude Jekyll."
