A Georgian mansion at the centre of the estate is home to the museum (also open free of charge), which is responsible for the care of more than 40,000 objects that reflect the history of west London and its people.

Gunnersbury Park & Museum is jointly owned by Hounslow and Ealing Councils. The councils have set up, and jointly own, the Gunnersbury Estate (2026) Community Interest Company which is responsible for running the park and museum on a not-for-profit basis for the benefit of the community.
