It is owned by Havering London Borough Council and run in partnership with the Hornchurch and District Historical Society.

As of 2024[update], the museum is closed while a significant programme of works is undertaken on the barn structure and roof, funded by a grant provided by the National Highways Company.

The thatched barn in which the museum is located was built in 1450 by the nearby priory (dependent on Waltham Abbey).

The Upminster Tithe Barn Museum is served by London Buses route 248.
