Loved every aspect of this museum. Firstly, it doesn&#39;t feel like just one museum. There is an actual SS Great Britain exhibition, with so much to learn about the ship, before even stepping foot on it.&nbsp;

I&#39;ve been here countless times growing up &amp; always enjoyed playing in the park as a kid or having BBQs pre Covid with friends on really warm days
