The British Lawnmower Museum

Shakespeare Street, south of the town centre

Address: 106-112 Shakespeare Street, Southport PR8 5AJ
  • Culture
  • Rain-proof ☔
  • Cheap and cheerful

Visit Britain's museum of lawnmowers, in a garden machinery shop on a side street, from Victorian push mowers to the mowers of the rich and famous.

Why it's a good date: Gloriously odd, and somehow more interesting than it has any right to be. It isn't open on Sundays and keeps short hours on Saturdays, so ring ahead before you go.
