The Museum
Pollock’s Toy Museum occupies two houses joined together in the heart of
Fitzrovia, one 18th century, one 19th; the rooms are small and connected by
narrow winding staircases. The whole place exudes atmosphere and evocations of
those special times of childhood. Every corner is filled with visual delights
and no matter which direction you look new surprises are there to behold.
