Postbridge is our newest National Park Visitor Centre having undergone a major renovation in 2020. Here, you can use technology to bring history to life in amazing detail, giving you a unique and special experience.

One of the highlights is the story of the internationally significant Bronze Age finds at Whitehorse Hill.

In 2011, a cist was excavated at Whitehorse Hill when one of the stones fell out of the peat mound covering it. Due to the unusual conditions, amazingly, cremated human remains and other organic material had been preserved for thousands of years.

Exhibitions and displays link into the landscape helping you to confidently understand and explore the surrounding area’s amazing cultural heritage.

Our knowledgeable team can help you get the most from your visit. Enjoy our History Hunters Trail and explore the fascinating area around Postbridge.
