Description
Ryedale Folk Museum is a large open air museum. Begun by a group of local men in the 1960s the site has continued to grow into the 4 acres that you see today. The wide range of historic buildings we have were rescued from around the area and contain a large collection of historic artefacts bringing to life the lives of ordinary people from Ryedale's past.
