Provides a valuable physical insight into industrial heritage. Good, but could be better.
Leeds Industrial Museum at Armley Mills的点评
点评:It is some time since we visited this museum, and publicity on an additional one day display of Meccano and Steam models influenced us to visit again. The car park is basic and requires a c120m virtually level walk to the entrance. The entry fees are not excessive and on arrival we were provided with a site map and advice, by the friendly reception staff. Unfortunately, the Meccano exhibition, whilst interesting, was very small, and there was only one model steam traction engine arriving as we were departing. Nevertheless, we continued around the rest of the museum over four floors. This included the permanent and some shorter term exhibitions. Some of the areas, particularly outside, cannot be accessed at present due to building renovation work. The museum as the name suggests is aimed at the industrial and some other history of the area. It is important that the building and equipment is preserved to assist future generations in actually seeing and understanding the historical past. The large scale machinery is impressive, with good information boards, but would benefit from some demonstations where possible. This may depend on the availability of knowledgeable staff or volunteers. Those that we did see were very approachable and helpful. There is also a small shop and cafe.
翻译:我们上次参观这家博物馆已经有一段时间了,但博物馆宣传的额外一天麦卡诺和蒸汽机模型展览促使我们再次造访。停车场很简陋,需要步行约120米才能到达入口,几乎是平路。门票价格不高,到达后,友好的接待人员为我们提供了场地地图和建议。可惜的是,麦卡诺展览虽然有趣,但规模很小,而且我们离开时,只有一台蒸汽牵引机模型到达。尽管如此,我们还是继续参观了博物馆四层楼的其他部分,包括常设展览和一些短期展览。由于建筑翻修工程,部分区域,尤其是室外区域,目前无法进入。顾名思义,博物馆旨在展现该地区的工业历史和其他一些历史。保护建筑和设备非常重要,以便帮助子孙后代真正地看到和理解这段历史。大型机械令人印象深刻,信息板也很好,但如果可能的话,可以进行一些演示。这可能取决于是否有知识渊博的工作人员或志愿者。我们见到的那些工作人员都非常平易近人,乐于助人。还有一家小商店和咖啡馆。
