A visit to the Downland and Weald Open Air Museum was a unique experience for my mother and I when we traveled to England together in 1984. The objective of the museum is to preserve barns, houses and other rural buildings about to be demolished by moving them to an outdoor museum. Here they can be seen in context, enabling visitors to experience rural life even if only in a small way. We thoroughly enjoyed walking here and admired the concept very much. Located in Sussex, it now includes 45 buildings.
