St Marys Cranks and Tinkerers

This is a must see for anyone who is interested in old, odd and querky, Ian the host there was a mountain of knowledge and loves to have a talk and show off what he has on display, you have to go round the place a few times to take it all in. Did several laps and found something new each lap. Great person to talk to and very talented. Will visit again.

Well what a pleasant surprise this place is, so much to look at and to remember things of the past. When we arrived Ian was working on one of his model ships and is a wealth of knowledge on just about everything in there. Ian was kind enough to pick up his banjo and play us a tune. Do yourself a favour and call in and say G'day to Ian.....you won't be disappointed that you stopped.

Fascinating boat builder with a passion to share details of his craft. Could spend all day viewing old tools and stuff

Ian was amazing, his collection is worth to have a look and appreciate the trickle of time. Nono of the item is for sale as each item is a treasure for Ian.

My Wife and I stopped off here by chance and what a treat it was. Lovely volunteers that were more than happy to have a chat and share their knowledge of the area. There was plenty of exhibits to see. We had a great time listening to some great organ playing and stories .
This place should be at the top of your list if you are any where in the region.
Highly recommended.

What a truly amazing place to visit and to spend time with Ian, the owner of the collection. Well worth the visit. as we saw things we have never seen in any other museum. Such an interesting man who was very happy to share his expansive knowledge with us.

great collection of pieces from days gone by .the host is terrific

Ian has a great collection. Well worth a visit.

This place is a hidden gem.
The guy running it is a wealth of knowledge. By far the most interesting place I’ve been. Well worth a visit.

Amazing collection and passion from the owner. You can tell he genuinely enjoys showing people around. Nothing is for sale, it's to be enjoyed! Thanks very much

Stumbled across this sleepy town where we found St Mary's Cranks and Tinkerers . The attendant who showed us around was lovely and a great host. Thanks Sue. We really enjoyed learning about the history of this town.

Would highly recommend this shop if your driving through St Mary's and say hi to Sue.

The gOld gentleman and the lady made our day with their kind and fun service. Lots of interesting stuff from previous generations..

Pop in and check out the amazing nick nacks and TALK to Ian!! He has a story about a lot of the things there... and have a look at the superb craftsmanship of the model boats and galleons. Worth the visit!!

Great little Museum walked around it for ages with all the little items of all descriptions. His model ships are a work of art and he does a lot for the community. Well worth a pop in!

How often do you visit a quaint collectors shop like this and get treated to performances on banjo and organ. What a great man preserving history for his small town. Will go back next time.

Super friendly folks looking after the place

Amazing place. Incredible history and many rare items to see.
Ian is a wealth of information and very friendly.

Well worth a visit. You'll be amazed at what's inside.

A must when in St Mary's. Ian was absolutely brilliant and such a nice guy and his knowledge on all his collections was fantastic thanks for sharing.

Full of interesting things and Ian has many interesting things to say. Loved it.
