The museum can be found in the heart of Exmouth, within walking distance of the car parks and the shopping centre, and they offer free entry for children and students.

There is plenty of memorabilia to see, plus a 1950's room, a Victorian kitchen, commemorative china, plus a Great War exhibition to commemorate the centenary.
