MUSEUMS
There are some twenty museums in Wiltshire, ranging from those run by volunteers in villages to large collections of national importance.
The museums are run by a variety of organisations including the County Council, The National Trust and private trusts. Many are operated by volunteers.
Many of the museums have a local focus as at Trowbridge and Warminster; while others are special collections like the Fire Defence Museum at Potterne, near Devizes.
