Kegworth Heritage Centre Homepage

Welcome to The Kegworth Heritage Centre!

The Kegworth Heritage Centre (formerly The Kegworth Museum) is currently unable to open because of the restrictions on movement that have resulted from the global pandemic. However, we will be updating the website from time to time with information, updates and activities to help you break up the monotony of Netflix and BBC reruns.

Thank you for your continued support!
