Tetbury Police Museum

Tetbury

 

Dedicated to the Gloucestershire Constabulary and fast becoming one of the main attractions in this lovely town, the museum is housed in the original Police office and (extremely secure) cells.

 

Visit the first floor courtroom for a 1940s court case, or enjoy the records, helmets, uniforms, handcuffs, early lamps, bicycles and an early identi kit – just don’t fiddle with the two and a half turn locks!

Berkeley

 

Steeped in history, Berkeley has changed the world: the Chantry, an elegant 18th century house, is the former home of world renowned scientist and polymath, Dr Edward Jenner (1749-1823). It was from here in 1796 that Jenner developed the world’s first vaccine, saving millions of lives.
