We wanted to let you know that our admission prices will be increasing slightly from April. This small change will help us continue to care for our historic sites, improve visitor experiences, and support essential maintenance and staffing costs.

Your support plays a huge part in helping us look after the Pump Room and ensure it remains a welcoming space for everyone.

The Museum will be closed tomorrow, Tuesday 13th January, so that the Collections Team can give the display cases a thorough clean and refresh!

If you need to visit the Tourist Information Centre, located within the Pump Room building, that will remain open.

Thank you for your patience and we’ll be back open on Wednesday, ready for you to enjoy sparkling displays.

See you soon! 👋✨
