Good find Kev. If we are to get our kids interested in the past this is a good place to start. A museum with a balanced display can set the young minds ticking. My eldest is six and through my finds from detecting she is now showing a keen interest in all things historical and when the time is right a trip to the museum will hopefully help her on her way.

Tenby Museum was a let down. I know people on this site who could put together a better display. Newport Museum in the Library building and Caerleon Legionary Museum are terrific and FREE !!! Tenby was £4 to enter. £8 for me and the Mrs to see less Roman than Borderfox digs up on a bad day! Most of Tenby "Museum" was turned over to an art gallery so you were paying for them to try to sell you art. Very disappointing. Caerleon was absolutely fantastic by comparison.
