Kings Cross / N. London - things to do with teens?

[penguinbiscuity]

We unexpectedly have about 3 hours spare today, late afternoon in Kings Cross / North London with kids 12,13,16.

Does anyone have any tips on good things to do that will be open on a Sunday?

Thanks :)

Wellcome Collection
Coal Drop Yards
Harry potter platform thingy

British museum?

Walk up the canal to Camden lock? Takes about 20 min from St Pancras?

lightbox is in coal drop yard but buy tic in advance.

British library has a free Treasures exhibit with amazing rare books in it

Walk along canal path perhaps to Camden if u want to exercise 😉

British library is right by the station. Or Wellcome collection is a bit further along but very good for teens IMO.

Agree with Coal Drops yard if you want to do something 'non-Museumy'

You could just bimble round Coal Drops Yard

If you really want to do something, you could go to the British Library easily- it has free exhibition including Shakespeare, Magna Carta etc

There's also an escape room near there if you can get the timings to work
