Self-led visits

We very much welcome self-led visits to the Museum. An administration fee of £25 covers all booking arrangements, a brief introduction by Museum staff and bag/ coat storage for your group. Please contact enquiries@banburymuseum.org for more information. Booking is essential.

To ensure the safety and well-being of your children in a public space, the Museum requires that your adult/child ratio is:

1:5 for Reception

1:6 for Years 1-3

1:10 for Years 4-6

This is in addition to 1-2-1 support for individual children.

There is a ticket fee per child for PYE Gallery exhibitions, but not for accompanying adults needed for your ratio.

Lunch room

The lunch room is FREE if your workshop extends for a full morning or full day. If your group has a shorter workshop, or is self-led, the lunch room can be hired for £15.
