Strumpshaw Hall Steam Museum

The Strumpshaw Hall Steam Museum in Strumpshaw, Norfolk is home to Traction Engines, Steam Rollers, a Showmans Engine and a Steam Wagon which are run on special occasions and on the last Sunday of each month from April to October.

The Museum also has a narrow gauge railway operated by a Simplex diesel disguised as a steam engine and a simple four-wheeled coach which are run on most open days. The museum also has the last surviving example of a Garret type of Traction Engine which is now in service, and a unique example of a Steam Wagon which is also working and a huge Plowing Traction Engine along with a Threshing Machine and an old plough with the Plowing Engine. There is also a farm next to the museum which has a collection of rare breeds of birds. Finally the museum has some fairground rides on site which are usually in operation for the public to have rides on.
