Welcome To Spelthorne Museum



After 25 years in the Old Staines Fire Station, in 2006 a professionally designed Spelthorne Museum opened with the entrance through Staines Library, Friends Walk. Close to public transport links and with disabled parking spaces in the nearby Riverside car park. The Premises are fully accessible for wheelchair users.



Admission is free and all are welcome! Please contact us if you would like to arrange a group visit or come to the museum during alternative hours. There is a museum shop stocking local history publications, postcards and small collectables.


The Museum is divided into two rooms -

  • the Elmsleigh Room, which covers the history of Spelthorne, from the Ice age to modern times.
  • the Thames Room, which has a Victorian kitchen layout, a replica Roman shop, the 1738 parish fire engine and the Museum shop and is open when Volunteers are on duty.

Current subject is the celebrations in Spelthorne for the Coronation of George V and Queen Mary in 1911. This will be followed by the history of the London Stone, our Medieval relic. For the summer activities there will be the story of some of our local regattas.
