Visitors to Bridlington and all locals should visit this gem of a museum, it's free and packed full of interesting exhibits. There are interactive boards for children and all were working when we visited. An unusual occurence in museums.
Access is by a tight spiral staircase but friendly staff are on hand to help and advise.
Allow at least an hour for a visit in this 'tardis' building.

The bayle Museum is an excellent attraction, full of interesting objects and historical artefacts from Bridlington. It is a much bigger museum than it appears from the outside. Amongst the objects on display is a collection of robert Thompson (the mouseman) furniture with the famous mouse carved on the tables and chairs. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. There is so much to see you can spend a lot more time in here than you planned. It is free to enter. Highly recommended.

The old gatehouse to the priory which was destroyed by Henry V111. It's now an interesting museum of Bridlington bygone. You climb up one side of the gateway via a spiral staircase with rooms with exhibits off to the side. There is a hall across the top and you then descend the staircase at the other side with more rooms. Free to enter but well worth leaving a small donation.

First rate museum, first time I've visited, probably won't be the last. A great overview of some of Bridlington's history, fascinating artefacts and a very warm welcome 'on the door'.
