Welcome to the MUSEUM OF TECHNOLOGY.
The Museum spans that very small period in history in which the technological revolution took place.
The items represent the evolution of electrical, electronic and warfare technology between the period 1850 and 1980.
Museum curator Rosie Hourihane invites you to look around our web site.
Our museum is funded and run entirely by volunteers. If you have enjoyed visiting our web site, a donation, however small, will help us continue our mission, to rescue, preserve and display early technology for the education and enjoyment of all - thank you. Our Museum on Video As part of the 2007 Heritage Open Days Hemel Today produced an article and a Video See the article and Video here

LATEST NEWS We have moved to Throckenholt The museum is currently closed to visitors as we have moved to Throckenholt which is 10 miles from Spalding, 16 miles from Peterborough, 8 miles from Wisbech and close to a little village called Parson Drove. Building of the new museum has commenced. The foundations are complete, the walls are now being built, and we hope to move the collection to its new home once the roof is on. Then the fun will begin planning the displays etc. Meanwhile we are offering our schools and reminiscence “Loan Box Service” to teachers and carers in the locality.
