A well laid out building, clean, well lit and airy. All carpeted. Masses of pods covering all types of antiques & collectables. The items that were of interest to us seemed quite highly priced. Clean toilets and staff are polite. We dropped in on the way home from the coast as it was recommended by other people in another antique shop. Well worth a visit!

We loved it here! A really interesting house & gardens with some lovely short woodlands walk. The cafe was also good - We had a really nice baked potato & later had a coffee & cake. We also spent some time just sitting in the deckchairs provided to just enjoy the view of the fabulous house. This is definitely one of my fave NT properties & highly recommend a visit.

True's Yard Fisherfolk Museum

Reviewed By Bunhunter

We spent a couple of hours wandering around the displays in the excellent small museum that gives a flavour of not only of the town of Lynn but also the busy thriving fishing and trading port in the days of the past. Do ask directions to the North End as it's well worth a visit and we recommend this hidden gem.
