Travel back in time to medieval England of 1066 as you wander through Mountfitchet Castle and Norman village at this world famous unique living heritage site.

Adjacent to the historic castle is The House on the Hill Toy Museum where you can take a nostalgic trip and come face to face with Daleks, see a life size Jar Jar Binks and have a close encounter with prehistoric Dinosaurs. View the Rock 'n' Roll exhibition and enjoy playing the early end-of-pier amusement machines.

An interesting historic and educational fun day for all the family.

New for 2010 is the Haunted Manor located within the Toy museum. Ascend the dark stairway to the chilling chambers and ghostly passageways that lead you to the possessed Victorian child's bedroom, where all that you see is not all it appears....

A small additional fee is applicable for entry to the Haunted Manor.
