Museum
The Museum, opened in1988, was formed to archive and display the history of
Emsworth and its surroundings, to make the public aware of Emsworth's historical
position. The Museum is entirely run by volunteers, and has a selection of the
area's history displayed in articles, books, pictures, clothing ships models.
There are displays devoted to the old sea-faring families, and to the author
P.G.Wodehouse who lived in Emsworth and incorporated several local names into
his books.
There is a special exhibition each month about people and events of local
interest. (See Calendar)
The Museum has an archive of Video and Audio tapes. These recordings can be
accessed during the Museum opening times on request to the stewards.
