In the town famous for lace-making Allhallows Museum has one of the most comprehensive collections of Honiton Lace in the world.
Lace-making demonstrations are given daily by volunteers throughout the months of June, July and August.

The Victorian dolls house was made around 1840 and stands over three feet high. It has six rooms, all fully furnished with contemporary furniture, original wallpaper, paintwork, wall ornaments and hand worked petit - point carpets.
Displayed in the Children's corner are some examples of the work done by local children after visits to the Museum.
