Next door to Kettle's Yard (see previous post) is Cambridge Folk Museum. This is a small and lovely place, with great appeal for younger children (and people like me). It has a warren of rooms set out as a kitchen, bedroom, scullery, dining room, nursery etc.
An amazing dolls house, part of a great collection of old toys.
The museum doesn't wow like Kettle's Yard, but it is worth popping in, especially if you have children or grandchildren in tow. There's a tea room at weekends and in the holidays. Great window display for this...
I have just read both your posts - two very interesting places to put on my list to visit. I think the Folk Museum looks wonderful. I haven't been to Cambridge for years - might have to visit this year. Karen x

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely looking place. The window really reminded me of Bagpuss' shop window. Happy childhood memories...
Best wishes

Looks well worth a visit.
