Historical place museum

Very nice to be immersed in the atmosphere of a huge Roman fortress that stood here for 700 years and has been rebuild at least 7 times. Rich in information. Live excavation going on. Highly recommended.

Had a wonderful underground tour learning the history of Joseph Williamson and his estate.Our guides, Tony and Laura, are diggers themselves and shared their personal experiences which really helped shape the story.The project is entirely managed by volunteers and run on donations which is quite impressive. We look forward to returning!

This is probably the best interactive WW2 museum that you'll ever find! It's an amazing collection of weaponry, machinery, uniform, and local history, alongside a wealth of knowledge from its staff; It's definitely worth a visit.

Out on a walk Hinxton to Ickleton not long off the road and I came across this little gem. One of those moments when you walk round the corner, stop in your tracks and just go WOW!I reserve 5 Stars for those wow moments, this was definitely one of them.

Lovely little museum with differentiated activities for children. We really enjoyed hunting for all the different items. What a great idea!

Lovely walk in the deer Wood (saw no deer) took about 1hr to do. The house is worth a look around. Unfortunately I didn't get round to doing the museum but saw there was a cider mill there.

Beautiful well loved and respected place steeped in local history. You really can get a feel for how life might have been within the walls over the years

This is one of the main remaining buildings of the original Palace of Westminster. The rest were destroyed by fire and the current Houses of Parliament now sit on those. The tower itself has thick walls as it was once the repository for Bills which were written on vellum and stored in a safe and cool place. It was also where imperial units were defined and standard weights and measures held.The site is maintained by English Heritage.

Lovely place. Good parking nice picnic area and playground for kids. Dog friendly. Polite and cheerful staff. Nice coffee shop. Good walk around by the river. Really like this place.

Visited the Newark Houses Museum recently and had a fantastic experience! The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful, making the visit even more enjoyable. The museum itself is truly impressive with its extensive collection and informative displays. I was amazed by the variety of exhibits that showcased the rich history of the area. The attention to detail in each section was evident, and it's clear that a lot of effort has been put into creating an engaging and educational experience for visitors. Kudos to the staff for their warm hospitality and to the museum for providing such a well-curated and extensive journey through history. Highly recommend a visit to anyone curious about the past and eager to explore the local heritage!
