Interesting to my wife and I. It is really a collection of the relics of a personal business, run by - apparently - a cheapskate who did very well for himself.

We enjoyed it , but it was mostly about one old business in Bath that they manage to buy the remnants of.

The faithfully reproduced factory settings were fascinating and gave real insight into the workings of a mid-1900s workshop.

This is a place where it is easy to spend a morning. There are exhibits about several small manufacturing and service operations this family ran, and it is a good combination with the usual Bath exhibits. It's also conveniently located. Highly recommended.
