Zeer tof om te zien en de moeite om eens te stoppen voor een tas koffie en cake

A waste of time

The staff is a bit rude, those who are looking after the artifacts. Otherwise the gallery is nice. Not too big though. Set in a nice place. If you want to have a nice relaxing walk, visit Royal Albert hall or memorial, you can tie it up with visiting the gallery
