Isles of Scilly Museum

Check whether the excellent Isles of Scilly Museum, which suspended visits in 2020, has reopened. It provides an evocative introduction to the islands' history, with an eclectic mix of archaeological finds and artifacts from shipwrecks. Among the collection are Neolithic remains such as tools and jewelry, clay pipes left behind by generations of sailors, a couple of sailing boats and a small exhibition on Edward Heath, the British prime minister who loved Scilly so much he was buried here.
