Tymperleys Museum

Relax in the garden, an oasis of
peace in the heart of the town.

Tymperleys now houses part of the
famous Bernard Mason Collection,
one of the largest collections of
clocks in Britain. All were made
in Colchester between 1640 and
1840 and give a fascinating insight
into this specialist trade.

The Museum can be found off Trinity Street, close to the Library.
