Cogges
Manor Farm Museum is a unique working museum depicting
Oxfordshire rural life in Victorian times set in an historic
manor house and Cotswold stone farm buildings.
Visitors take a step back in time when they
enter the beautiful farmstead with its original Cotswold buildings
and meet the traditional breeds of farm animals including
cows, sheep, pigs and chickens. The displays of farm implements
and machinery and the regular demonstrations of farm work
such as handmilking and buttermaking add to the experience
and help bring the Museum to life.
