Alford Heritage Centre
The museum aims to preserve and share the rural heritage of the North East of Scotland and of the Alford and Donside area in particular.
The museum collection was begun around 1990 mainly by loans and donations from local families. The original focus of the collections can be broadly described as items pertaining to “Rural Life”- agricultural, social and domestic. This has resulted in a wide ranging and eclectic collection of objects. As the museum is now full to capacity, future collecting must be more focused and relevant.
The Museum holds substantial archive holdings including photographs and newspaper cuttings. A library of donated books is also maintained.
