This museum is a wonderful exposition of everyday life over the ages. It has several wonderful sections - my favourites are the birth to death sections, which record how children were born, brought up, married, and buried over the centuries in England. What makes the displays special are real records from local residents. A fascinating one was the record of wedding expenses from a local woman for her own wedding and also for her grandmother’s 50 years previously. The other exceptional section is the recreation of a York street in the 20s. It is realistic and very interesting and educational. A must visit in York.
