Coronavirus (COVID-19)

If you are planning on travelling distance to attractions, we would recommend that you contact the venues directly in advance to avoid disappointment.

If you, or any of your party have a new persistant cough, or develop a fever of 38C, we would instead advise you to use the NHS's dedicated website for professional advice.

Museum of Power

The museum is housed in an impressive 1920s building set in about 7 acres of grass, trees and shrub beds. The River Blackwater runs through the site offering riverside picnic areas. A large triple-expansion steam engine is currently on display as the main exhibit with many other sources of power on show. Eventually, there will be samples of all sources of power and other items in the museum to educate and entertain.
