James Blunt, an English singer-songwriter known for his top hits, ‘You’re Beautiful’ and ‘Goodbye My Lover’, and now a star of the celebrity spin-off of the popular BBC show, The Traitors, has a ‘museum’ dedicated to him in the quaint village of Peterchurch, around 12 miles from Hereford.
The 52-year-old told fans in May 2025 that the museum, which has its own Tripadvisor page, had been ‘refurbished’. Pictures are hung on the walls from various moments in his life and career, and contain a photo of The Devil Wears Prada actress, Emily Blunt, bearing the caption: “This is Emily Blunt. Emily is not related to James.”
Blunt posted on X at the time: “I’m excited to announce that the James Blunt Museum in Herefordshire has recently been refurbished, and is now back open and accepting visitors. It really is a glorious place to take the family this summer. Please come early to avoid the queues.”

The phonebox also includes a picture of Prince Edward in military uniform, which is captioned: “James (not pictured) used to be in the army but left because he didn’t like it.”
The phonebox, placed on a corner next to the turn-off for Urishay Court, has been reviewed on Tripadvisor by five visitors, with one cyclist commenting: “Saw it by accident whilst out on bike ride today, no queues and free admission, allow your about 10 seconds to explore, but about 2 hours to find it!”
Another wrote: “Stumbled across this hilarious gem tucked away in the middle of nowhere.
Kudos to the creator. Utterly hilarious.”
Blunt is currently appearing in The Celebrity Traitors, now on its fifth episode.
Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the series began with 21 celebrity contestants trying to seek out the traitors among them who kill off players in the middle of the night.
Other celebrities on the series have included actor Richard E Grant, Love Island host Maya Jama, broadcaster Amol Rajan, actor Bella Ramsey, singer James Blunt, actor Julie Hesmondhalgh, content creator King Kenny and Little Mix’s Leigh-Anne Pinnock.
