Waterworks Museum, Industrial heritage museum in Broomy Hill, Hereford, England.
The Waterworks Museum features an extensive collection of functioning pump engines, including steam-powered machinery and water treatment equipment from different periods.
The Victorian pumping station served as the primary water supply facility for Hereford from 1895 to 1952, delivering one million gallons daily through its triple-expansion engine.
The museum preserves the evolution of water engineering through exhibits of beam engines, steam engines, gas engines, and historical water distribution systems.
