My favourite museums

This  Wakefield  museum is at the top of my list - a must visit site for all ages.

Kids love it and so do the adults.

Don your hat and go below to see how our hard won coal was extracted.

This Leeds museum is absolutely stacked with machines from the industrial revolution.

Covering textiles, steam engines, engineering, photography, printing, cars, trams, buses.

Don't miss out on this museum - allow yourself plenty time to browse.
