Question
hi-Can you tell me the 5 best musuems with dinosaur displays or exhibitions in the whole of the uk.I know the british museum in one of them but i want to know more.thanks

Answer
Hi John,

The UK museum with the best presentations about dinosaurs is probably the Natural History Museum in London.  The Natural History Museum is very professional, it has a good reputation, and it has quite a lot of dinosaur material.

Other possiblities, none of which I have visited:

--There is a dinosaur museum in Dorset (www.thedinosaurmuseum.com, but from what I've read it is not very good.
--The Bexhill Museum (www.bexhill-museum.co.uk)has some dinosaur exhibits.  
--And on the Isle of Wight there's a dinosaur "farm" museum (www.dinosaur-farm.co.uk).  

That's all I know of...hope this is of some help to you.

Regards,
