The Foundling Museum

Kirkaldy’s Testing and Experimenting Works is an extraordinary survivor in the heart of transforming London. What’s more, it has played a unique part in that transformation – the place where one man’s belief in ‘Facts not Opinions’ underpinned engineering advances around the world.
This London Museum Has Been Voted ‘Museum Of The Year 2024’ Just One Year After Opening
