The real beginning was 1994 when Tring Town Council set up the Tring & District Local History & Museum Society.

The Society has flourished since its inception, providing a focus for the collection and dissemination of many aspects of Tring's history. It hosts regular Speaker Evenings, with guest speakers on a myriad of interesting and informative local topics...
Tring's history is narrated in an entertaining and interesting way in this historic building, formerly the office of Tring's cattle-market. Started as a joint venture with Tring Town Council, the museum was created with the help of a Heritage Lottery Fund grant and opened in September 2010.
