Modern building of an institution founded in 1854 containing dinosaur and regional history exhibits.

👍👍 This place is absolutely amazing. There are so many interesting things to explore. The place is divided into a few sections suitable for different age groups which is great. It's a very safe environment too. This place is a must visit. One suggestion I would give is that it would be great to add mor...

👍👍 The Tram Museum is an absolute institution. I've been meaning to come for years, but never managed to make it to an open day. Well, I took my sons (4 and 6) on the weekend and we loved it! There is an incredible range of trams (more than I could have guessed) which all differ in big and small ways....

After trying to renter the theatre I was told no hot food was allowed so I s...

👍👍 Really lovely museum and staff.
