    Excellent

    Outstandingly interesting - what is interesting about a pencil you think - well go to this museum it’s fantastic. You are given a 20 question quiz, optional, on entrance and it makes the visit really fun and you get a souvenir pencil to boot! As a disabled visitor it’s easy access and manoeuvring is simple. Staff are really friendly and lots of fun facts. Well worth a couple of hours of your time. Car parking is a bit expensive but that’s the only downside.
