Three 1840s [[weavers' cottage]]s were converted into the [[Colne Valley Museum]] in 1970. The museum has several restored period rooms which are used to show temporary exhibitions. The museum was extended in 2008 following the purchase of the adjoining former fish and chip shop.

Exhibits include a handloom and a [[spinning jenny]], invented by [[James Hargreaves]]. In the loom chamber, spinning room, weavers sitting room and 'gas-lit' cloggers shop, the volunteer helpers give demonstrations of the type of crafts that would have existed during the 19th century.

The museum is run by volunteers and opens at weekends and bank holidays. Various craft and working weekends are held through the year.<ref>[http://www.culture24.org.uk/yh000050 Colne Valley Museum] entry on Culture24. Retrieved 7 December 2009.</ref>
