This unique and popular local museum, located in a prefab at 17 Meliot Road, SE6 1RY and celebrating prefab life has been granted a further extension until the end of summer 2014. From 7 June the museum will be open on Saturdays only from 11am - 5pm, at other times by appointment, and for London Open House on the weekend of 20-21 September.  We look forward to welcoming groups of local primary school children this summer.

Whitefoot and Downham Community Food+ Project
