Where our stories live!


We have great pleasure in announcing our new trading name, which more clearly reflects the diversity and breadth of our Collection.

WE’RE LIKE THE TARDIS

- much bigger than we look!


We recommend allowing 90 minutes for your visit to the Museum, in order to gain a full appreciation of the scale of the Collections (and our Bookshops).

John Holland crew have been at the Batemans Bay Heritage Museum laying a concrete foundation for the commemorative granite blocks removed from around the Bridge during new construction. We’ll be caring for their detached historic plaques until the new Bridge is built. With the cement left over, Darren and Brian kindly filled in a several gaps around our new disability access path.


Great work, guys, and thanks JH.
