The enormous (IMechE EHA award winning) triple expansion steam engine (Worth McKenzie - 1895) is what all visitors come to see.

The Museum is a centre of excellence for hot-air engine enthusiasts - here we see a ½ hp Hayward Tyler engine from 1890

The Museum hosts numerous rallies throughout the year (see website for details) - here we see the Hereford & District Preservation Society who show their engines on our courtyard every year.

Restoring and showing historic engines and pumps in working order is what we do best at Waterworks Museum - Hereford

The Children's Water Heritage Park is a Play'n'Learn zone with 9 life size exhibits which visitors of all ages enjoy operating

Classified by English Heritage as 'a site of clear national importance', the museum is home to the oldest working triple expansion steam engine in the UK and probably has the widest range of working pumps and engines.
