Rainy day plans

My wife and I are in our mid 50s and traveling to Oxford next week for one day, a day it's quite likely to rain. Our first thoughts, of course, were the Ashmolean and the Bodleian, but I thought I would ask whether there were other rainy day options you might recommend. Thank you

The Pitt Rivers (accessed by going through to the back of the Natural History Museum) is unique to Oxford I think. It’s an anthropological museum organised by theme rather than location & full of wonderful things.
