Great to visit a historical building of the Leeds university! The museum was quite small but lots of bits and pieces which tells the history.
Weird and eclectic collection of bits and bobs. Maybe not so interesting for the kids but some great curios for adukts if a curious bent. Saw an actually bit of Mozart. Didn't see that one coming.
Excellent! Small, but full of interesting items. Free to visit.
Great bit of the university.
