Cobbaton Military Museum is billed as 'A Hobby which got out of hand'. It certainly did! Preston Isaac had a passion for World War II, and his collection of military paraphernalia, including tanks, guns, helmets, artillery, bombs, and other weapons. But the 'Home Front' is equally well represented, with the collection including ration books, blackout lamps, civilian gas masks, as well as Home Guard and ARP uniforms.

An integral part of the transportation system, the Quay House with its overhanging roof was used to store goods destined for canal transportation. Today the building houses exhibits on the history of the Quayside and an audio visual display on the 2,000 years of the city's history. It is also a useful starting point for touring the city, as it provides visitor information (and Quayside treasure hunts!).
