The Museum of East Asian Art is situated in a restored Georgian building. The collection was founded by Brian McElney, a retired solicitor who practised in Hong Kong. This unique Museum houses a fine collection of objects from all over East Asia, ranging in date from circa 5000 BC to the present day. The exquisite collection includes Chinese ceramics and metalware, Japanese lacquer and a range of south east Asian ceramics. Also on display is one of the most comprehensive collections of Chinese jade and some of the finest bamboo carvings in Europe. There are regular events and special exhibitions.
