Description

The Town Carriage Museum is all about the town of Peterborough past, present and future. It offers community members and visitors alike the chance to see what makes the town special through a collection of 18 artefacts. These have been chosen to represent events in the town's history, people of significance and aspects of life in the town. Presented together in a simple chronology a timeline of sorts through to the present day, they offer a complete picture and illustrate that this town is diverse, interesting and about much more than just railways. Critically, it also encourages people to visit related (and equally diverse) attractions in town, engage and hopefully stay an extra day. The display occupies the main compartment of the Commonwealth Carriage, with 18 small cabinets and information panels. This is a free point of interest. No camping or overnight parking allowed.
