This Electrical Museum was opened in May 1981 by the then Chairman of Southern Electricity, John Wedgwood.
Since then the Museum has seen many changes both here and in our parent company Scottish and Southern Energy.
We thank Mr Wedgewood and his comtempory collegues without whom this Museum would not exist.
The Museum is housed in the Old Power Station at Christchurch. Dating from 1903 the building still retains its original Edwardian charm. Guides are on hand to help and inform you as you tour this unique collection of electrical artefacts. The tours are educational as well as fun and enjoyable for all the family. Or if you prefer you can just browse.
