Norris Museum
The oldest items on show are fossils and reconstructed models of animals that lived here in the time of the dinosaurs. More recent specimens include remains of the Woolly Mammoth and archaeological remains from the Stone Age onwards. There are special displays on the Civil War, on French prisoner-of-war work from the prison camp at Norman Cross and the local sport of ice-skating on the flooded Fens.
