The Truggery Museums
Trug making is a traditional craft which has been established in Sussex for at least 200 years, and is an Anglo Saxon word for wooden vessel or boat-shaped object. 'The Truggery' at Coopers Croft, Herstmonceux is a cottage on the outskirts of the village built in the early 1800's.
At 'The Truggery' we are proud to continue the tradition of producing trugs using the same methods and often the same tools as Reuben Reed did more than a hundred years ago.
Opening times: Monday to Friday 10am to 5pm, Saturday 10am to 1pm, Closed on Sunday.
