Natural History Museum at Tring
(Tring 21 miles from Marlow)
An offshoot of the Natural History Museum in London – meaning entry is FREE – it is based on the collection of Lionel Rothschild, and first opened in 1892. It retains its unique Victorian character, including the original floor-to-ceiling, glass-fronted hardwood and iron cases. The 4,000 animal specimens on public display are still classified into related groups, just as they were in Walter’s lifetime.
