Whitewebbs Museum of Transport - Enfield

Agn K.

This fantastic motor museum is staffed by lovely and knowledgeable volunteers and features not only historic cars, motorcycles, and bikes, but also toys, models, typewriters, vintage interior decor, and exhibits relating to the history of this former pump station building. The museum seems tiny at first, but it is spread over four levels, with external engine sheds hosting fire engines, trucks, and an ambulance. Outside, you will also find a historic railway coach with working model railways. Please pay a visit to the cafe on the first floor to buy some drinks and hot/cold snacks and support this museum. There is a step-free side entrance and a lift to the first floor. It's definitely worth visiting, although it's a pity that it's open only on Tuesdays and last Sunday of the month. Many more visitors could enjoy it if some additional weekend openings could be arranged. This is a great place for kids, so plan your visit next half-term.

I stumbled across this transport, engineering and toy museum by accident - it's a gem! Based in a Victorian ex- pumping station ( complete with viewable 200 foot well), it has great displays of cars, commercial vehicles, motorbikes and bikes, toys and local war history over several floors and a courtyard. Large cafe space too, although it has nothing for coeliacs, alas. Passionate, friendly and knowledgeable volunteers complete the deal - great for kids too, as there's plenty for them to do. Highly recommended and good value for the £11.50 (April 2025) entrance fee.

Really interesting place. It's not massive but cool things to see and interact with. The volunteers were great and all willing to chat to you / explain things. Would deffo go again

What a great place to visit. Lots of all types of vehicles, toys and artefacts. Lots of lovely people to talk to about what's on show. The café is excellent and serves delicious food. Very good value and worth a trip.

Went here to present an award so didn't get as good a look around as this fascinating place deserves, so we'll have to return in the future. Staff were fabulous, enthusiastic, knowledgeable & passionate. Food was great at the little café there & we loved the old pumping station building it's all housed in. Will definitely be returning ☺️💕

You can use the (DHL) STEVENAGE train for transportation to the museum. It’s a 10-minute walk from Crews Hill Station. Before even mentioning the beauty of the museum, what truly makes the visit appealing is the incredibly kind, helpful, and friendly museum staff. My children loved them so much that they were very happy when leaving the museum. I sincerely thank them.

The museum consists of a four-story building and a large outdoor area. On the first floor, you’re welcomed by magnificent historic vehicles. The second floor features motorcycles and a café area. The third floor includes a play area for children, old-fashioned children's bicycles and cars, and a museum section showcasing historical daily life items and essentials. The fourth floor presents a display of sewing machines, typewriters, cameras, home interiors, and handmade toys from the past.

In the outdoor area, there is a visual display of a model locomotive container and railway track. My children were fascinated by this. You can explore vintage vehicles such as fire trucks, ambulances, and milk delivery vans from around 1912, and with the sweet and attentive help of the staff, you can even experience them up close.

I went to a model train exhibition in Whitewebbs transport museum. It was amazing. Organised by the Whitewebbs model train club.
