Why It’s Unique: 🧊 Giant Victorian Ice Well See where ice imported from Norway was stored (pre-fridge era magic!) Learn how canals delivered ice for London’s posh ice cream parlours 🍦 🚣 Narrowboat Life Peek inside cramped boat cabins where families lived & worked Discover how canal horses pulled heavy cargo (spot their stables!) 🏗️ Industrial Secrets Uncover how canals built London (bricks, coal, and yes—ice!) Interactive displays on locks, tunnels, and Victorian engineering Visitor Info: 📍 Address: 12-13 New Wharf Rd, London N1 9RT ⏰ Hours: Tue-Sun & Bank Holiday Mondays, 10AM-4:30PM 🎟️ Tickets: ~£6 (kids free! Check website for discounts) Fun Extras: Boat rides available seasonally (check ahead!) Great combo with King’s Cross food spots or Camden Market #CanalMuseum #IndustrialLondon #HiddenHistory #KingCross #IceCreamHistory
