Children are very welcome to visit the Museum and we see many families through our doors. Children must be in the company of parents / carers, and their supervision and safety remains the responsibility of their parents / carers for the duration of their visit. We often have small trails that children can follow. If you are concerned about any part of the displays you can speak to a member of staff on arrival and they can advise you.
Q:

A:
When we went, there seemed to be quite a lot of available parking on site, no charge
