One of the smallest museums in the UK, in a former 'Anchorage' set beside the west door of 11th century church of St Mary and St Cuthbert. From 1383-1547 this was the dwelling-place of an Anchorite or hermit, sealed in the building for life. Along with Roman and Anglo-Saxon antiquities the museum illustrates the history of the church since its foundation by monks in 883 AD. and the life of these religious men.
