I have known this museum for many years, especially when l was doing my BA at Kingston university.  It has been a source of inspiration.  A lovely collection of local history, again there is always some new exhibitions organized,as well as various events, which is worth looking out for.  Definitely worth a visit.

It's small museum. It opens only 3 day of week from Thursday to Saturday . Admission is free. We visited on Saturday, there was no queue and museum was almost empty. Reception staff is friendly.  The museum's holdings include 120 Martinware ceramics, some of which are on display.  The art gallery on the first floor of the museum hosts a changing programme of exhibitions as well as talks and events.

I cannot speak highly enough about our guide for our free tour round this free museum. He was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and great with kids, making information about our borough interesting and accessible to all ages in our group. Many thanks from the last group on Saturday 17th December! We really enjoyed it!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo wait

A great museum, with helpful, personable and informed staff. Luckily I visited in early 2023 as the expansion of the ULEZ in August will make future visits impossible. Enjoy the museum whilst you can!

Connected to Kingston library, it is a small but a charming little museum with some interesting historical artifacts on Sunday. There is a small art gallery on the first floor.  The volunteer at the desk was welcoming and happy to have a chat. We worth a visit if you are in Kingston and some time to spare.

My first visit, to view a friend's exhibition, introduced me to a delightful collection of items showcasing the rich and varied past of my local Borough. Including Nipper the dog! HMV's modelVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo wait

If you are living in Kingston, you should visit the museum because there is a lot of interesting history hidden in this area. Besides, keep checking their website as they have occasionally events that may suit for you.
