  • Tim Harness

The museum is in an old (1723) house within the original riverside village of Twickenham. It is small (only two rooms), but there is plenty to see for 30 minutes to an hour. There are ancient neolithic stone spear points, as well as a Doggets Coat won by a local rower in the oldest rowing race in the world. More
