After finding a toy museum in Prague castle a few months ago I've now found another toy museum in another castle!

This time, Mountfitchet castle in Essex. I say 'castle' but it's technically a modern reconstruction of an 11th century wooden fort and Saxon village.

All very nice but did I mention the toy museum??

Check out the Dinkys!

..and the 350 strong VAM collection! :affraid:
