​THE NEW SPELTHORNE MUSEUM IN THE ELMSLEIGH CENTRE OPENS FROM 5th NOVEMBER 2025

The museum has moved to the new Library Hub in the Elmsleigh Centre, Staines.

The same wide range of fascinating objects, in a bright new space, with specially designed display cases backed by beautiful artwork and interesting interpretation. Our main three large items (London Stone, Printing Press, Old Fire Engine) will soon be placed in display cases inside then library itself - giving much better close up views of these very special objects.​​​
