The Weald and Downland Museum is a showcase of old English buildings. The exhibits are all genuine period pieces which were moved from their original locations and rebuilt on the museum's land. Some of the farm buildings were simply ruinous and in dire need of tender loving care, but the houses were all "listed buildings" which, nevertheless, had to be demolished to make room for new roads or other modern development.

The building in this photograph was standing in the path of the Channel Tunnel.

The Weald and Downland Museum is at Singleton, near Chichester, in the county of West Sussex (England).
