Carmarthenshire County Museum

In a 13th-century country house and bishop's palace, this museum is an emporium of archaeology, Egyptology, pottery and paintings, with recreations of a Victorian schoolroom and a collection of carved Roman stones. A major refurbishment, including opening a cafe and walks around the fecund grounds, was happening at the time of research, with the museum due to reopen in June 2021. It's two miles east of Carmarthen on the A40 at the Abergwili roundabout.
