I’ve not been to the Burrell Collection in Pollock for over 35 years, last time I came here was with my friend Rosemary. If I remember correctly the collection was actually in the old house and not in a fancy gallery as it was today.

I went with Ken and Linda and we were on a bit of a tight schedule so we were in and out in about an hour and a half but I would think that you really need more time than that to explore and there is also the amazing grounds to walk through.

The collection is vast and covers historical artefacts from over 5000 years ago, mainly Egyptian. If I have time I think I will go again and maybe this time try to explore the outside. As usual parking is a premium and it’s £3 for two hours although it is free entry to the collection.
