[1] A collection of bicycles through the ages established in 1981 in premises on the estate of Belton House, near Grantham.
After the house was donated to the National Trust the museum was without premises until a new location at Lincoln was offered.
James Maynard, Edward Skeet and Anthony Pickering took on the running of the museum after the originator and curator, Raymond Fixter died.
In 1997 the Welsh Tourist board saw the opportunity of combining three collections (Tom Norton, David Higman and the National Cycle Museum) and offered premises in Llandrindod Wells, Powys.
It has received a Grade II* heritage listing, being "an exceptionally early grid-pattern steel-framed building surviving largely unaltered".
