Really interesting building and history, and a great gift shop on the ground floor. Join one of the guided tours and learn loads about the special collections and the founder!
The Neo-Gothic Victorian library is not only an impressive piece of architecture itself, the large collection of William Caxton's books known as the first books printed in England can't be missed too
