Paul HughesJanuary 3, 2016My boys love it as they can play old video games for hours! Not cheap & need to offer annual pass. Clearly run on tight budget. Needs a modern museum curator to make it an experience and education.
James WeinerSeptember 28, 2013Try and get yourself invited upstairs - a mix of a junkyard and a treasure trove!

"Lots of prehistoric mammal specimens. I think there's a stuffed Okapi (cousin of a Giraffe which most won't get to see cos they are so rare). Great place to bring the kids. Right in town."

"While not as extensive as the bigger museums, the old-fashioned approach to displays and storytelling here feels unusual and interesting. Great for a quick visit (under an hour) for kids and adults."

"Working Victorian steam engines and printing presses (for typography fans), local history of the Pye/Cambridge Instrument Companies and great family and specialist events. A hidden gem of Cambridge!"
