    Not changed much since I was little, but that's part of the fun. It's now a sort of museum of…read moremuseums, with 1930s style galleries of minerals, plants and (oddly enough) fish in the mix. My personal favourites include the mummy (shown complete with x-rays as well as a sarcophagus) and the new cabinet of curiosities room where the stuffed animals used to be. Oh, and the consoles in the room with the vending machines where I spent far too long playing Sonic. And the room that is full of Stuff - I honestly have no idea of the theme of the room, it just seemed to be full of everything that had no other place to be. I loved it - everything from mummified cats to Maori tiki. If you're after an interactive extravaganza, you're in the wrong place. If you want a museum that has a great selection of artefacts and local history, and is free, you'll spend a lovely few hours among the old-school cases.

    For a small town museum, there is a lot going on here. Although my children are now well-grown, we…read morestill take others children here as most Warringtonians don't visit it. Such a shame, as this has four floors of the most wonderful exhibits around. It would take a few days to see all that is on display and there are many more in storage! Particularly impressive are the Egyptian and Natural History sections. There are also a number of superb grandfather clocks dotted about the spaces and, often, examples of local artists' works. Since a few years ago, when the entrance area was completely revamped to incorporate a disabled lift, the access is excellent and the foyer is much more welcoming. All of the attendants are extremely knowledgable and will direct you to whatever you wish to see with the minimum of fuss.
