About Potters Bar District Historical Society
Potters Bar Museum is run entirely by volunteers and tells the story of the growth of Potters Bar from a tiny village on the Great North Road to the thriving present day town.
Opened in 1990, the Museum stands on an historic site; looking out onto the timber framed Wyllyotts Manor, part of which dates back to the 14th century. The Museum specialises in social history and small domestic objects now obsolete.
The collection ranges from Roman artefacts to modern day social history items. A specialist collection of telephones, from the 19th century to the latest novelty types are on display.
