Bexhill Museum explores local social history, with an especially strong collection of historic costumes.
Displays range from the late 18th century to the present day, with collections of toys, objects of everyday life, dolls, embroidery, and hand-made lace.
A large portion of the museum is dedicated to the natural history of the Bexhill region, with an emphasis on dinosaur and fossil discoveries. Dinosaur bones, footprints, and teeth are on display.
There is also an exhibit dedicated to the King George III German Legion, who were stationed at Bexhill from 1804.
