Wonderful little museum. If you are interested in history, especially Victorian history, then this is a great place to visit. The buildings date from the 1860s. The staff are very knowledgeable and we were even shown around the gas works next door by a former employee on the site. He turned on the pumps so we could watch them working and made the experience very enjoyable! Considering they only ask for donations - it’s free to go in, it’s definitely worth a visit!

The volunteers are fantastic and extremely knowledgeable and very welcoming. Great bit of history, and engineering at its very best. Completely free and well worth stopping off and visiting when in the area. Located right next to Bransbury Park and very close to the seafront.
