About Chipping Norton Museum of Local History

The museum is now in the Victorian "Co-op Hall" opposite the Town Hall, with exhibits of agricultural equipment, Bliss Tweed Mill and Hitchman's Brewery. There is a 'thirties' kitchen, a reminder of wartime life 'on the home front' and a history of the local Co-op. There is also a display of postcards produced by the late Frank Packer during seventy years as a photographer in Chipping Norton. Reference books and copies of parish records are available for family history research in the library and archives department.
