Stock and Presentation

Items on display include wooden tables, chairs, ceramic tableware, glassware, and assorted metalware. Pieces are grouped loosely by material and period rather than by formal category.

The address lies a short walk from Cambridge railway station and several bus stops along Mill Road. Pavement access is level and direct.
