Clitheroe Castle Museum, Local history museum in Clitheroe, England.
The museum occupies the former Steward's House, a Grade II listed building from the 18th century, situated beneath the Norman castle keep.
The castle complex served as an administrative center for the de Lacy family, who managed their lands through a trusted Steward overseeing legal proceedings.
The museum galleries present 350 million years of regional history through exhibits about local industry, geological formations, and community figures.
Children and young people under 18 receive free admission, while adult visitors need to purchase tickets to access the museum collections.
