The museum will be based at the Town End of the Danebank stand, along with a cafe, small shop and an office for the Drill Field Trust.
Derek Nuttall, the club's company secretary, said: "The development of the museum is part of the phase two development of the Danebank. We are still eager for people to donate memorabilia relating to the club to us to be displayed in the museum."
The club already has medals won in the last 100 years, plus posters from the first matches played.
Derek added: "No date has been set for the opening of the museum, but the sooner the better - the start of next season would be nice."
The Drill Field is now part of the Heritage Walk, which charts the history of the area.
As part of that link the club has plans for a foot bridge over the Dane behind the Danebank for visitors to enter the ground.
"This will be a great addition to the ground," added Derek.
"We have a lot of visitors in the summer, coming to see the oldest ground in the world. Before we could only show them the Directors Lounge, this will allow them to see part of the club's heritage in a nice atmosphere."
The other phase two plans for the Danebank include the building of toilets and a gymnasium.
If you have any memorabilia to do with the club which you are willing to donate to the museum then contact Janice Fenton, Thomas Barlow or Clive Penny via the club's general office.
