Digital Guide

Do you know why our tiger has a lion’s skull? Or why Gallery 1 was built taller than the rest of the Museum? And how did generations of the Powell-Cotton family leave their mark on the house, the collections, and gardens?

You can find the answers to these questions, and more, with the Powell-Cotton Museum, Quex House and Gardens digital guide on the Bloomberg Connects app.

Bloomberg Connects offers a new way to explore our collections, house and gardens – whether you’re visting in person or browsing at home.
