Ribchester Roman Museum (officially the Ribchester Roman Museum of Roman Antiquities) is located in the village of Ribchester, Lancashire, England. It sits near the northern banks of the River Ribble, adjacent to St Wilfrid's Church.[1] Founded in 1915 by Margaret Greenall,[2] a member of Warrington's Greenall's brewing family, it is registered charity number 510490 with the the UK Charity Commission.
The museum houses many of the finds from Bremetennacum the Roman fort a few yards away. The most notable find, the Ribchester Helmet, is on show in replica; the original is in the British Museum collection.[3]
