Visit the Museum Shop

You can browse and buy in the Museum Shop, during normal Museum open hours, without paying for Museum tickets.

The MUSEUM SHOP specialises in publications relating to the heritage of the area: we stock over 200 titles in the following specialist areas: Coalmines, Mining and Local Industries; Children’s books; Local People and Places; Railways and Canals; Somerset; Walks and Maps; Wartime.

We keep several ranges of greetings cards by local artists, gifts, pocket money toys, and souvenir items that will remind you of your special visit.

Experience our railway themed tea shop

The ‘BRIEF ENCOUNTER’ buffet is adjacent to the shop and is open during Museum opening hours for a selection of refreshments including specialty teas, good coffee and delicious cakes and snacks.

The tea room has a special railway ambience and free Wi Fi for its customers.

It is similarly open to non-museum visitors and welcomes walkers and cyclists.
(There are bike racks just opposite the Museum entrance).
