About This AttractionSuggest an Edit

Take a step back in time and experience Victorian life. At the heart of this museum is the Victorian classroom, restored as if it were the 1870's; equipped with authentic and well-used school desks, slate writing boards and chalks, blackboards and easels and even dunce hats. There is also a recreated domestic kitchen, complete with utensils and artefacts that you can handle. Visit on one of the 'Sunday Open House' activity days where you can experience what a real Victorian lesson would have been like, complete with actors in full Victorian Costume. They run events in the holidays so check the website out!
