i was pleasantly surprised and quite excited when i visited this museum.From the out side you do not expect to see the vast array of things insides as what you do see.Dating back 100 plus years every thing in here is an eye opener not only that its FREE to look round and explore when i first visited i thought oh quick ten minutes to look round and pass the time away.Well it took me well over an hour browsing t my leisure before i had finished looking round this museum well worth a visit even if you need to pass an hour or more away.

Reviewed By Gunness - Scunthorpe, United Kingdom

Great place for lunch with a varied menu. Free entry too.. Often have a range of exhibitions, sometimes interactive which is fun with kids. Theres a small shop selling local artisan work, but keep a check on whats happening and there have been some exciting displays in the past, inc. Grayson Perry's tapestries and more lately an interactive Lego exhibition

The Priory

Reviewed By Emski101

Came to Priory for a meal with my family and was greeted straight away by Megan who seated us and made us feel welcome. She took our drinks order and brought them over with barely any waiting time. We ordered food by using table service with Megan and although our requirements were quite picky nothing was too much trouble and she catered to everything we needed. Food came out fairly quick and was hot and tasted good and Megan came back to see if everything was okay with our meals and although we asked for more sauces etc nothing was too much trouble and she made our visit amazing. Brilliant and cheerful service, would definitely recommend.
