Porthcawl Museum's objectives are, for the benefit of the public, to gain knowledge and encourage research into contemporary life and the history of Porthcawl and its surrounding areas of Newton and Nottage. Exhibitions and Events that are held throughout the year are geared for the family and lovers of history.
This small museum is oin an old Police Station, the volunteers are keen to chat and explain some of the exhibits. It only cost a couple of quid to get in and will take about an hour to see all there is. Quite quirky in a good way
