During December our usual display rooms are being used instead for an exhibition celebrating some of our best loved children’s stories – Once Upon a Time.
Admission is £3 (all ages) or £10 for a family ticket (up to four people).
The site is wheelchair-accessible with designated car parking for disabled visitors and a fully accessible toilet which includes a baby-changing table.
Located in the historic town of Barton-upon-Humber, close to the Humber Bridge, the museum makes a great place to start your exploration of the town and South Humber Bank.
The Once Upon a Time exhibition and Old School Canteen are open on Thursdays – Sundays until 22 December.
Once Upon a Time is open between 11am and 3pm.
The coffee shop is open all year between 10am and 4pm.
After Christmas, The Old School Canteen re-opens on Thursday 2 January.
Admission to Once Upon a Time is £3 (all ages) or £10 (family ticket for four). Our historic schoolroom displays are suspended during this period.
The Museum will be open on Saturdays & Sundays only during January and February – between 10am and 4pm, starting on the 4 January. The Old School Canteen coffee shop opening hours remain unchanged: Thursdays – Sundays 10am – 4pm throughout the year.
Our News page will be updated with more information about these changes.
Our Events page will be updated with details of special weekend events in the New Year.
