Oxfordshire County Council has transferred the management and operation of Cogges to a new charitable Trust after running the museum of rural life for more than 30 years.
Cogges Manor Farm Museum is now closed to all users. The 2010 season will be operated by a new independent management trust. Go to the new Cogges website.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our supporters and visitors and hope that you will continue to support the new "Cogges" in the future.
The Cogges project board was set up to secure a long-term sustainable future for Cogges Manor Farm Museum as a site of local and national significance. It will take over the management from 1 April 2010.
The project also aims to:
meet the council’s financial plan
continue to care for the ancient monument and listed buildings
retain public access to the site and ensure that it is an attractive place to visit offering a high quality experience to visitors
maintain the integrity and atmosphere of the site
maintain the collections on site to professional standards
retain a level of heritage interpretation
ensure the site is used effectively as an educational resource
A conservation statement has been commissioned by Oxfordshire County Council to provide a framework of understanding and guidance for the management of Cogges Manor Farm. Find out more.
