Excellent welcome , interesting history .

Absolutely loved it. Especially my Son as the volunteer there (name was Dan Raven I think) was amazing and told him lost of interesting things and answered all of his questions.

One of the most delightful museums I've ever been to, with a lovely shop and a nice café offering lots of choices.
