2024 opening times:
We plan to run the Narrow Gauge Railway during Swanage Railway special event weekends.
Please check our Facebook page for our regular updates and latest museum opening dates and running times for the narrow gauge demonstration railway.
Parking is available at the Dorset Council’s Purbeck Park ‘Pay & Display’ car park.
Toilets and baby changing facilities are located in the car park.
Refreshments are available at the kiosk by the Children’s Play area and on Norden Station platform.
We’re committed to making the Purbeck Mining Museum as accessible as we can for everyone. At present, access is not possible to some parts of the site for wheelchair users or pushchairs and buggies. We’ll always try to find a solution to ensure that this doesn’t impact on your enjoyment.
Dogs on a lead are welcome.
We’re next to the fabulous Swanage Railway, so why not make a day of it and enjoy a trip on a steam hauled train.
