Today we visited the London Canal Museum. It’s a small building on a quiet road very close to madness of Kings Cross. It backs on to the Great Union Canal and is a good way to spend a hour on a grey and gloomy Sunday. The curation is informative and pretty good for kids, there is a life sized horse model to stroke and a real narrow to board.
There is a very big ‘but’…the museum has no a cafe, the only refreshments available is a hot drinks machine! The museum backs on to the Great Union Canal and is housed in an old ice house. A cafe/bar would work perfectly on the balcony viewing the canal or in the cellar where the ice used to be housed, let’s hope someone invests.
