County Classics Motor Museum grew from the personal dream of a very ‘driven’ schoolboy: Museum Creator, Pat Hawkins bought and sold his first car at the age of 11 and as he grew his businesses from nothing, built up a fine collection of cars and motorcycles alongside them.

When the historic County Stores – a department store owned and run by five generations of the same family since 1832 – closed in 2019 having failed to find any retail buyer, Patrick saw a chance to bring his dream to reality.

The historic building was completely restored and repurposed, a disabled-access lift and vehicle lift were installed and through Covid lockdowns, a dedicated team battled on to create the wonderful, evocative Museum we can all enjoy today. The historic features of the building are enhanced by bespoke joinery and carefully-selected motoring memorabilia; every one of the over 100 cars and 150 motorcycles is individually captioned and explained. Dedicated volunteers are present to enhance the visitor experience with stories of the vehicles in their heyday.
Richard Hammond opened County Classics Motor Museum in NOVEMBER 2023.
The focus is on Cars and Motorcycles from the 1950's to the 1990's.
However the exhibits range from 1915 to early 200's.


County Classics Motor Museum will continue to evolve with the displays changing regularly.
