Liskeard & District Museum
THREADS – ‘Capturing memories woven in fabric’ Join us on a nostalgic voyage back into the early 1900s. Uncover the tales of local people told through the lens of clothing, and glimpse into the life of Edwardian Liskeard.
We are home to the largest collection of toys in Cornwall ! See James Bond’s Golden Gun, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and many many more.
The museum is part of the World Heritage Site for Mining. Displays include mining and geological artefacts. Explore the development of the town from Mesolithic settlers to the present time. Learn about the history of Liskeard, from the work of local heroine Emily Hobhouse to the story of how the rocks beneath your feet got turned into Silver, Lead and Tin….
Admission is free, families are very welcome and there is lift access to all floors.
