Lots of information but not enough on the back bone of the battalion and by that I mean junior ranks

Absolutely fantastic museum of proud British Army history. Battle Honours and artifacts from the Royal Welsh Regiments staggering roll of honour. The curators are absolutely fantastic. Thoroughly enjoyed - everyone should be made to visit!

This is a very typical Regimental Museum; lots of medals, captured weapons, uniforms, etc. However, it's enlivened by details of the defence of Rourke's drift against the Zulus AND by some bits of uniform to dress up in - which kept our 8 yr old companions entertained as they crouched behind the machine gun!

A small museum run by volunteers. Worth a visit if you are interested in military history. Quite a bit on the Zulu war of course, but all eras are covered.

A fantastic well maintained museum. Every artifact is clearly explained with careful detail adding a significant poignancy to a soldiers life. The staff there are extremely friendly without being intrusive, they provided us with additional knowledge to any exhibit we had questions about and took good care of my son too, who loved the whole experience also.

A wonderful museum, very informative, I was surprised but delighted by the amount of items on display, not just about the Zulu wars in Africa, but right throughout including the troubles in Northern Ireland. The display of weapons and medals is impressive, and it is somewhere that I will happily visit again. If you are interested in military history then this is definitely for you.

Really interesting little place, with very friendly helpful staff. If you are interested in Rorke's Drift and the Zulu wars, it is well worth a visit.

Brilliant. The most VCs in one engagement on display alongside period uniforms & weapons, a real treasure trove. If you've seen the film Zulu about the defence of Rorke's Drift you'll have an inkling of what's on offer, but something for everyone of all ages regardless of previous knowledge.
