The London Canal Museum is where you can dive into the history of London's canals and the ice trade. Housed in an old ice warehouse, you can explore narrowboat cabins, learn about the people who lived and worked on the waterways, and check out a massive Victorian ice well. It's like stepping back in time to when ice was a hot commodity! Plus, they offer boat trips, events, and even have a webcam showing the ice well. So, if you're up for a unique museum experience in the heart of King's Cross, this place is worth a visit.

Open Tuesdays to Sundays: 10am to 4.30pm, last entry at 4pm. They are closed on Mondays, except bank holiday Mondays.

Children under the age of 6 go free!
