Welcome To NCCHP!
The NCCHP museum was founded in 2007 to preserve & incorporate the rich history of Granville and the surrounding areas. The museum is housed within the historic buildings of the Noble & Cooley drum factory. The buildings & original equipment at the site offer a unique opportunity to experience "Yankee Ingenuity" as it impacted manufacturing from the mid-1800's forward.
Check Out The NCCHP Research Library
Dick and Tom have been working very hard on cleaning, sorting, and archiving over 150 years worth of treasures. Check out the blog that showcases some of their amazing finds...and more! This month features pictures of the newly "restored" 1924 Model T truck that made it's debut in the Granville 4th of July parade. You can see at the museum when you come for a tour. Check out all the cool stuff on the blog here.

We Got a Facelift!
With grants from Granville's CPC, and your support, the museum building got a much needed facelift. We are a National Historic registered building and had the clapboards replaced and painted to match the original facade. Check out pictures below!
We were only able to budget doing the front of the building in 2023. With your help we can fully refinish the sides of the building as well. To help contribute to the project click here to donate to the cause.
