The Torpedo Factory Art Center is a former World War I munitions depot which was then used to house the Nazi war archives after the end of World War II. The building has now been turned into a studio and learning center for local artists.

The Ice Well, this is a very interesting place to see as it gives a great insight into what life used to be like without one particular type of modern technology. Before refrigeration was invented, large blocks of ice were brought down the river and were stored here.
