 Re: A question about England?
Many museums were financed through subscription (i.e. interested people donated specimens and money) and endowments (money left in wills etc.) Many are also supported by the Lottery Fund and the local council and donations from visitors who have enjoyed their visit are very welcome.
You'll also find that some smaller or specialist museums do now charge a small entry fee.
If I can help with any other answers, please let me know.
Have a good trip,
