    A good free of charge museum located on the docks in Liverpool, just a short walk from the main shopping area (Liverpool One). Currently a good John & Yoko Exhibition on the the top floor, other exhibitions are mainly around Liverpool History including the Lion locomotive. Plenty to see & do for all ages, also very good access to all floors for with limited mobility, with lifts to all floors & everything on the flat.

One large exhibition dedicated to John & Yoko.After entering this wonderful building we first went to Double Fantasy exhibition featuring John and Yoko and we loved it,
