In a stumbling jour The British Lawnmower Museum, Keith Hardings World of Mechanical Music, and Mad Jacks Sugar Loaf. In a world of theme parks, interactive exhibits, overpriced merchandise, and queues, dont worry, these are names to stir the soul. Reassuring evidence that theres still somewhere to turn in search of the small, fascinating, unique, and, dammit, British. In a stumbling journey across the country in search of the best we have to offer, our intrepid heroes discovered dinosaurs in South London, a cold war castle in Essex, grown men pretending to be warships in Scarborough, unexplained tunnels under Liverpool, and a terraced house in Bedford being kept warm for Jesuss return.
