A ye olde step back through time with houses, shops and exhibitions to look at. Cheaper to visit on a non-event day but event does have more things for the kids like bouncy castles and trains. The steam train one every month is good I hear.

Called in here on a bit of a whim and had a really interesting time. Unfortunately our schedule meant we couldn't stay longer but we will try to visit again on a steam Sunday (2nd in the month) when we are next in NZ. Fascinating exhibits and friendly, knowledgeable volunteers.

We spent the morning wandering around the park taking in the various fascinating exhibits. These were restored cottages and shops, a huge collection of fire engines and a working print shop and model train layout. Volunteers staff the collections and are so willing to share their knowledge and passion. The tram trip goes round the site and ends up at a couple of old carriages made into baches. Good fun!

This is a real deal volunteer run authentic working museum and restoration centre. So many different aspects from an incredible collection of vintage fire engines, to historic aircraft under restoration. A real trip down memory lane for anyone aged 50 or more and a real education for the kids. Great printing press experience and other educational stuff disguised as fun ! Well worth it.
