There are Victorian sitting room and kitchen settings in addition to frequent changes of tableaux on topical themes.
Other specialities are a huge range of photographs some of which have been collated into a DVD of Old West Kilbride.
The local Book of Rememberance is always available and is backed by medals and memorabilia of the two World Wars.
