Bodmin
Town Museum is situated on Mount Folly approximately 100 yards from
the main car park. Recently refurbished, the museum tells the history
of the town from the earliest times up until the end of the second world
war. Through objects, photographs, text panels and a room setting, the
story unfolds. The visitor steps back in time when viewing the Cornish
kitchen with its scrubbed top pine table, cooking utensils and black
leaded kitchen range. The story of Bodmin during the second world war
is depicted through photographs, objects, text panels, uniforms and
posters. Other interesting exhibits include the local stocks and an
18th century fire engine.
