Interesting museum, well set out, showing local history and finds, with a temporary exhibition space and a good coffee shop downstairs. Plus dressing up opportunities!
Wonderful little museum full of local history and life.....Good for children but only small setting so does not take long to go around. Worth a visit
Great place to visit. So much work has gone into the displays.

Really enjoyed looking around the museum. There are lots of different artifacts on view, spanning Roman to 20th century, and different interactive areas, my children enjoyed the dressing up area. There is also a small gift shop with a range of items for sale.
Not just for a rainy day! There's tons to do and learn here. Combined with the library, coffee shop and all the other things, there's a while half day if fun to be had here. The ladies on reception were extremely helpful and welcoming. The building itself is absolutely spectacular. Go and have a look for yourself!
Fascinating museum on local history of Market Harborough and the surrounding area. Very good set of displays on the town industrial history. Especially interesting was the extensive display of the Iron Age coin collection from Gallatin. This was a huge discovery, and has coins dating from ~ 50 BC. It's amazing when you see the intricacies of the coin designs. There had to be very sophisticated metal working skills to produce these coins.
