Can we be greener by learning from our past? Victorians were great at repairing, reusing and recycling. Discover what the Victorians did to make things last longer and even have a go!
With over 260 bears on display, visit our all new teddy bear museum and learn all about the history of these cuddly collectables, as well as the fascinating story of Mr Simpson and his amazing collection of teddy bears.
Experience the unique Milestones Pier complete with traditional penny arcade! Have a go on vintage amusement machines, try your hand at the claw grab to win a prize, laugh at your friends in the funfair mirrors and take a snap in the seaside scenes.
The exciting new project at Milestones is now complete! 433 solar photovoltaic (PV) panels have been installed on the museum's roof, which will enable the equivalent of half of our annual electricity use from a renewable, zero-carbon energy source.
"I felt inspired by everything - the staff; how clean everything was; access to all features; all the little extras like the ration book and the penny arcade... just brilliant!"
