There’s also https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/ in Cambridge

And the National Videogame Museum in Sheffield - https://thenvm.org/

I was able to visit this place last year, it was great! I spent all day wandering around and playing. I would have stayed even longer if they weren't closing, hah.

Highly recommended. They used to have a gaming-focused satellite in the Grand Arcade. It’s gone, now, but I heard a rumour they may bring it back in the summer.

There's also the Museum of Computing in Swindon.

https://www.museumofcomputing.org.uk/

I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to visit it, but if you find yourself in Swindon for some reason, then it's worth a peep.

Yes, I've been on the Magic Roundabout, nearly shat myself and I wasn't even driving.

I'm imagining you tacking it on foot now.

As someone who lives 200 meters from The Magic Roundabout, this is the kind of optimism I can get behind!

I can also highly recommend a visit to The National Museum of Computing.

While you're there, take a stroll around Bletchley Park as well. Last time I checked, you get a discount when visiting both, and they're right next to each other.

This weekend (5/20-21) they’re hosting an Acorn Econet LAN party!

Oh man I wish I was still in uk i would so be there.

I suppose if someone was en route to visit Stonehenge or Avebury it could be tied in!

Another one for the UK as well https://www.rmcretro.com/visit-the-cave

Also a general computer museum in the north-west (Leigh, Greater Manchester) as well:

https://www.nwcomputermuseum.org.uk/ - with quite a nice looking but frustrating website...

Also https://www.arcadeclub.co.uk

(While they don't brand themselves as a museum and it's very much about playing the games, they have an incredible collection of arcade gaming history)

As well as: https://www.derbycomputermuseum.co.uk/

The guy behind This Museum is (Not) Obsolete has a youtube channel Look Mum No Computer where he creates massive, insane musical instruments out of furbies, hand-made syths, etc. Truly impressive and very entertaining and educational.

As a resident of Ramsgate, definitely feel lucky to be a few streets down from both TMINO + Micro Museum and very cool to see a shout out here! Well worth doing both in a day as they're next to each other.
