Storm Tower Exhibition

To commemorate the history of the Storm Tower and the historic journey it has experienced, a dedicated exhibition has been installed at The Castle Heritage Centre. The exhibition features information on the Acland family, the history of the Storm Tower, the past and recent moves to preserve the tower, the community’s evolvement and a look at climate change which is the reason why the much loved landmark was moved and saved. This exhibition can be found on the ground floor of The Castle, just off the reception area, right of the main stairs, which is open from 10am every day offering free entry into our exhibitions and our galleries.
