Had a chance to visit a couple of places of interest to me in the the UK and thought I’d share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. PK Porthcurno, Eastern House, Porthcurno, Penzance, Cornwall
    TR19 6JX- Museum of Global Communications<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n
    \"Museum<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

    This museum includes a cliff hardened bunker and plots the fascinating history of subsea cable communications with interactive displays and an incredible amount of artifacts. The cable hut is where the cables land and is well worth a look.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n

    2. Castell Pridd, Tanygroes, Ceredigion, Wales, SA43 2JS – Internal Fire Museum of Power<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
    \"Internal<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

    This is an amazing place and I would highly recommend a visit as the website does not do it justice, especially if you like telephones as their working displays are fabulous.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n

    3. Milton Keynes Museum<\/a>, McConnell Drive, Wolverton, GB MK12 5EL<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Well worth a look around, the telephone displays and working exchange is amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. Amberley Museum<\/a>, New Barn Road, Amberley, Near Arundel, West Sussex, BN18 9LT<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We went on a ‘Communications Day’ event, the museum has a huge footprint with numerous displays, the Electricity and Telecoms hall were obviously my favorite \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n
