We’ve created a welcoming space where visitors can connect with Lawrence’s story, while also finding thoughtful gifts and pieces. There really are treasures waiting behind every brick.

The Museum is all about celebrating local heritage so we want the shop to also reflect the fantastic local businesses and makers we are lucky to have in the area. We are always on the lookout for local makers to partner with, so do get in touch if you think you have something that would complement our existing collection.”

The shop is open during museum hours, with proceeds supporting the continued preservation of D.H. Lawrence’s heritage and other museum activities.

The D.H. Lawrence Birthplace Museum is where the literary legend was born on 11 September 1885. Only 30 minutes from Nottingham city centre, the museum is a must see for fans of literature, and for those wanting to delve deeper into Nottingham’s literary heritage.

Step back in time to experience the traditional Victorian wash house, see the parlour; a room only for special guests, and have a wander around the parental and other bedrooms. The museum’s permanent exhibition features items from Lawrence’s family and even paintings created by the author himself.
