This history of consumer culture is revealed decade by decade in the “time tunnel”, from Victorian times to the present day. Discover the trends of daily life, the revolution in shopping habits, the groceries, sweets and household goods, the changes in taste and tempo, the advent of motoring, aviation, radio and television, the gradual emancipation of women and the effects of two world wars.

They are currently showing "Sweet Sixties" about candy form the 1960, the show is described as "The ultimate nostalgia trip for sweet lovers everywhere."

Hours

Opening hours Tuesday to Saturday: 10am to 6pm, Sunday 11am to 5pm, closed Mondays except Bank Holidays. Last entry is 45 minutes before closing.
