The modern Devil’s Porridge Museum caught my attention because, with a name like that, I didn’t know what on earth it was about, but I thought I might like it. Turns out, this Eastriggs museum, works surprisingly well for kids, because it’s all about explosions!
‘No infant has the power of deciding at what period of time, or in what part of the world he shall come into existence’. Visit New Lanark for home truths, ghost rides, history, heritage and great food. A unique family break in a Scottish Unesco heritage site.
