I have been a couple of times and I must admit to being a tad disappointed. There is so much history in Newark and there are some interesting pieces in the museum, but for me it just didn't come to life.nOn a positive note, there is a good dressing up box to keep children and some adults entertained.
I'm in two minds how to rate this. There is a broad overview of the British Civil Wars of the 1640s and to give credit it's good they use this terminology but there is actually relatively little artefact wise. You could easily cover the exhibits within an hour. There are volunteer/re-enactors floating about who are helpful and informed. As a jump off point for the town Civil War trail it's worthwhile including but not necessarily as a standalone visit. If you already have any insight into the period you are not likely to learn much new and there are some gaps.
This is an interesting museum with lots of artefacts and displays about the Civil War and the history of Newark.nThe information is clear in most areas. However, the film was very disappointing. It looked to be an interesting film but I am deaf and the film did not have subtitles so l was not able to understand what was happening.nThere is a lift to other parts of the exhibition.nThe staff were friendly. There is a café and there is a payable car park nearby.
Fantastic museum, high volume of information and artifacts from the wars. Plenty of children's activities from colouring, to playing dress up and toys. The team are extremely friendly and have made a great effort for entertainment for all.
Great little museum for all ages. My grandson and I have been several times. Free entry for Newark and Sherwood residents. 4 stars rather than 5 because several of the interactive tables weren't working - given that its the school holidays they really were essential to young people getting the most out of the visit. Even the 20 min cinema show was shut ! Always clean and we'll displayed, history is well explained. Generally there's a separate display upstairs. Toilet facilities great. Cafe in the same building, as well as visitor information displays , children's activities often on. Parking nearby car park fees.
