This museum is again well worth a visit. Situated in the market town of Ulverston in Cumbria. It was a labour of love for the late Bill Cubin . Bills daughter Marion is now the curator. Everything you want to know about Laurel and Hardy is here. This museum contains an amazing variety of memorabilia, believed to be the largest in the world, including letters, photographs, personal items and furniture. A large extension opened in 1992 gives you ample room to browse. There is also a small cinema showing free films and documentaries all day. Disabled persons have full access. Well worth a visit-fun for all the family. |

This
is the Worlds smallest public Railway. It is 14 miles long and is situated
on the Romney Marsh in Kent. It is sign posted from the
M20 Motorway . At New Romney station
there is a large model railway and cafe. What is the L&H connection?
Well , Laurel & Hardy re-opened this line after the War in 1947. They
travelled the line pulled by a loco called DR SYN. You can still see
this loco today working this famous line. Photos of the opening are in the
exhibition at New Romney.
