An award winning museum which presents the history of the building and Colchester in a light and amusing fashion, making it ideal for family visits. Hollytrees House, built in 1718, is reportedly haunted by a perfumed, piano playing lady ghost. Look out for the dolls house which is a miniature Hollytrees and the locally constructed Victorian boat-pram. Toys through the ages are on display including a set of Star Wars models. One of the displays celebrates Colchester’s famous nursery rhymes, Old King Cole and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
