Whilst our Museum changed its name from The Railway Age in 2008, we are still very much a railway centre based on the LMS Yard for Crewe Railway Station.

Many enthusiasts visit the Centre to view visiting locomotives - some in steam. Others to view the LNWR Travelling Post Office and other exhibits.

If you have not visited our attraction for a while you will soon realise why we are now The Crewe Heritage Centre. The history of other aspects of the town is widely featured in our displays.

In a picturesque setting beside the crossing of the River Eamont, Brougham Castle was founded in the early 13th century by King John's agent Robert de Vieuxpont. His great keep largely survives, amid many later buildings - including the unusual double gatehouse and impressive 'Tower of League' - added by the powerful Clifford family, Wardens of the Marches. Both a formidable barrier against Scots invaders and a prestigious residence, their castle welcomed Edward I in 1300.
