The Folk museum contains an old style public bar which is in its original form and has not been altered. The bar is unique, featuring a long counter with a lift-up hatch. Old bottles adorn the shelves and the kitchen with its open fire, settle bed, and assortment of delph and kitchen utensils conjures up an atmosphere of those bygone days when the fire really was the heart and engine of the house. The museum also contains display room featuring newspaper cuttings, farm implements, etc.
