Bennie MuseumThe Bennie Museum in Bathgate, West Lothian is housed in two adjoining 18th Century cottages. Displays which include collections of early photographs, glass from the former Bathgate glassworks and exhibits on two local men, Sir James Young Simpson (1811-70), inventor of chloroform, and James (Paraffin) Young (1811-83), highlight the social and industrial history of the area.
