The Tolsey Museum is a local museum in the town of Burford, west Oxfordshire, England.^[1]^[2]^[3]

The Tolsey Museum is located on Burford's main street in a Tudor market/court house.^[1] It is a black and white timber-fronted building on stone pillars.^[4] In medieval times, the building was a meeting point for wool merchants. Tolls and taxes were also paid here. The building was included in the BBC Domesday Project.^[5]
