Claverton Manor--THE AMERICAN MUSEUM and GARDENS
Included more for the British enthusiast than the American visitor. It has a Number of rooms decorated totally in U.S. period furniture of both french and Indian War and American Revolution. It also regularly hosts demonstrations from re-enactors of both periods.
