Have been at the venue numerous times for various occasions. Lovely staff and volunteers and a lovely museum with large gardens. Would definitely recommend for parties, special occasions etc.

We did the museum tour a few years back. I was part of a bereavement group with my son. I was surprised and impressed with the quantity of local historic items, and the intelligence of the guide who explained the items so well. We also enjoyed the gardens at the rear of the museum, they are clean, well kept and structured in keeping with the museum. If you are visiting Workington or west Cumbria, the museum is well worth a visit. PS: You can also get married here, and the gardens would provide a lovely yet tranquil setting for photographs or even a marquee.

This is a place of times gone by,by not embracing it ,but seeing it hands on what it was like.I believe this is a gold mine of information,as opposed,to children expected to just reading it in a book,you can see for yourself,by admiring the well kept artifacts,having the latest technology at your finger tips to see what it was like.see for yourself how hard it was someone to survive.note how many hours a eight year old was expected to work,how the mines must of been etc etc.besides Helena Thompson,this museum pays homage to the Curwens,who I've been told are a well known English gentry ,of very high standing. The grounds can also be used for weddings. Note the well kept gardens.workington,you have a true gem in your hands.I hope you make the best of it,and continue to support them.
