    Life in a Lens is a museum presenting all aspects of photographic history
    from Victorian times to more recent years. The museum is very atmospheric
    and is set in a renovated Victorian house in the middle of North Parade in
    scenic Matlock Bath. As well as having large collection of photographic
    items including cameras, postcards, and packaging, there is a collection of
    mannequins in original vintage costume to add to the atmosphere of days gone
    by. The museum is very popular with all age groups and is presented to be of
    interest to all the family.

    Life in a Lens is open most days between 12.00pm and around 5.00pm (often
    later during the season). Phone to be sureif you are making a special trip
