News/Diary Dates
The David Brown Tractor Club Museum is eagerly anticipating its next opening day. We encourage you to come and be part of the excitement! Our doors will be open from 10am, providing you with ample time to explore our fascinating exhibits. As always, we offer free parking and admission, although donations are always appreciated to support the museum's ongoing initiatives.
In addition to the incredible collection of over 15 vintage tractors, ranging from the early Ferguson Brown to the very last tractor ever produced at Meltham, there is so much more to enjoy during your visit. Our club shop will be open, offering a variety of tractor-related merchandise for purchase. If you're feeling peckish or in need of a refreshing drink, the café will be at your service, serving up delicious cake and beverages.
Excitement fills the air as our raffle prizes await lucky winners, adding an extra thrill to your visit. For our younger visitors, we have Troy the Tractor kiddies ride, guaranteed to put a smile on children's faces.
We genuinely look forward to welcoming you to our museum. The dedicated team members are ready and eager to greet you with warmth and kindness. So come and join us for a day filled with history, camaraderie, and the joy of tractors!
