Compact civic museum with Victorian architecture, period galleries and an eclectic art collection — great for interior detail, portraits beside paintings, and façade shots. Best on weekday mornings for soft side-light through tall windows; golden hour flatters the sandstone exterior. Street parking and nearby public car parks; step-free access in parts but check exhibit restrictions. Usually free entry but confirm special exhibition fees and opening hours.
