Though the fire hall was built in 1982, the museum at the rear is a relatively new addition. It contains a number of artefacts from the department, many from the era when it was the "Fire Brigade". The highlights of the museum are the two retired fire trucks, a 1923 International Bickle and a 1938 Ford Seagrave Tandem.

The door to the museum is usually locked as it is not regularly staffed, so to tour the museum enter the administration office on Fourth Street at the front of the building and they will guide you back to the museum.
