Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology

This is a museum dedicated to all our ancestors. The archaeology gallery holds one of Britain's most important collections of native Roman and Anglo-Saxon finds. The anthropology gallery upstairs is graced by a colossal wooden totem pole and contains intriguing objects from a variety of cultures. Every visitor is likely to find a personal favourite, whether it be an imposing carving or a detailed ornament. A third gallery is devoted to temporary exhibitions. Wheelchair users should note that there is a lift inside, though they are advised to telephone prior to visiting. The museum is closed at Christmas, Easter and on most bank holidays. Admission: free
