We don't go to Taunton very often and my main memories of it are being dragged along on my wife's Christmas shopping trips so it was a great relief to see Taunton has more to offer than a commercial center sucking money from your pockets.
Infact the museum is totally the opposite. Set within the old castle at the center of town, where it has been since the 19th century, the entrance was actually free putting me in a very good mood for the visit.
The staff were very welcoming and helpful and the exhibits thoughtful and well planned. We ended up having a nice light lunch in the cafe rounding up our stay to about three hours of very enjoyable entertainment.
We made a sensible donation at the end of our visit as we felt it was thoroughly deserved and would recommend it to anyone looking for some diversion/education on a cold winter's day.

So so as far as museums go. Stone carvings to last you a lifetime. One small area of Somerset Light Infantry. Mostly full of uniforms. would have liked to have seen weapons through the ages. Cafe was expensive and when asked if we could have some more hot water she replied "we don't do refills".

I've never heard of this museum until I was passing through, but it was quite a surprise. Free entry, although donations are welcome. Museum covers Somerset from prehistory, until the 20th century. The Monmouth rebellion was quite interesting, as it was a local event. They had an exhibit from a Somerset artist, whose work was good, although I'm not one for art. I found the history of the Somerset regiment and their predecessors, one the best I've seen.
