Sometimes good things come in small packages
A modest place containing an unusual collection of artefacts. There is no entry cost but a donation is welcome. The information and items are displayed in a traditional style with no fancy gimmicks but you can't help but be drawn to things and take away some piece of information that you hadn't previously known.
