Bexley Heritage Trust is responsible for the care and management of Bexley’s extensive museum collection, comprising over 50,000 objects. The collection is diverse ranging from natural history, geology and archaeology to costume, painting and furniture. The collection has expanded over many years though acquisitions and donations and the majority of items are linked to the borough, local people, places and events. |

Objects from the collection are displayed at Hall Place, Danson House and Erith Library.
Danson House contains Georgian furnishings, paintings, selected items from the Bean family and Victorian kitchen displays. Erith Library displays a range of industrial and social history collections relating to the north of the borough. |
