Best museum ever. Great history of Britain and Labour force. Very Interactive and intuitive storytelling!

charles ross

The detail (& original artifacts ); bit more orientated towards only those interested in British Political History & politics students than the whole family

Lulu

Provides a decent overview on the rise of democracy in Britain . Thorough and varied exhibits . Confusing displays, needs clearer direction. Cheap homemade cakes !

Jeremy Felt

Had a great time here. So much information, it can be overwhelming at times. A bit more editing and curation might help, but it's also nice to see so much material.

Majority of the museum is oriented towards UK political history . The layout of the different parts can be confusing (difficult to follow a logical path). But worth the visit.

Henrique Barbosa

Andy Howell

Fascinating displays of subjects not normally covered prominently in museums and history collections. Well worth a visit.

Really nice veg sandwiches but leave plenty of time as service is quite slow. Really chilled place to relax .
