The revamped museum is a little treasure. I love the exhibition and display space when there are art shows by local artists.
Small but interesting museum highlighting local industrial mills and machinery. Gallery upstairs with regular exhibitions. Includes a small but well stocked shop. Car park outside museum - next to canal where barge trips run in summer. Helpful friendly staff
Small but interesting place, pleasant staff
Interesting museum on the history of the area. Industrial, agricultural and social. Sections on prehistory, geology, manufacturing. Well presented with good informative displays. We spent just over a hour there.
The 2 Old Women on the front desk unfriendly and extremely rude. I went in today as my Daughter wanted me to purchase something she had seen in the gift shop on another visit. As you go in there is a big sign saying the toilets are not public. My Daughter and I were about to go in the gift shop when she asked to go the toilet . I asked one of the women on reception for the key. Her reply was it isn't a public toilet you know. I said we are purchasing something from the gift shop. She said she wanted a donation for using the toilet. Firstly I only had credit card and was buying from there. This is disgraceful. If you are frequently the Museum you have a legitimate need to use their facilities. When we came out the toilet and elderly lady was with her Husband in a wheelchair and headed in the direction of the toilet .Again this women from the reception said to the it's not a public toilet you know to them. They said they were looking for the wheelchair access to upstairs. I think this kind of behaviour is appalling and apparently the norm here. These women should be retrained in hospitality. Needless to say I decided not to buy anything and won't be returning. If you need the toilet when in the building you don't need the third degree and they should not insist on donation for using it!! !
