Redbridge Museum
What Visitors Say
Very interesting exhibition of local history during WW2 ..loved the mammoth 's bones, Roman links and links to East India Company...strongly recommended to visit
The Redbridge Museum has recently been refurbished and renovated, making it fresh and inviting, educational and interesting to visitors of all ages. A great place for all the family. Everything is well signposted and the information supplied on all the exhibits and displays are interesting and informative. So much to see and learn about Ilford and the Redbridge Borough.
Great place to study at, staff are very friendly and overall the atmosphere is great. Only thing I’d say is it would be nice if the area downstairs is open when the Lab Central classes are not on, but either way it’s a great library!😊
Passed by and found the museum inside the library building. Very interesting and full of information about Redbridge. Worth visiting. There’s also a cafe in the ground floor of the library. The environment was cosy with friendly staff and the food was yummy, too.
My daughter forgot her USB in the PC on the upper level of the library while studying.it is Samsung USB.She has all the precious moments of her life and siblings. If anyone found it please return on the reception. Ill highly appreciate it.
