Withernsea Lighthouse Museum is a museum in the lighthouse in Withernsea, East Yorkshire. It stands 39 metres tall and is one of the UK’s few inland lighthouses. At the base of the lighthouse is a maritime exhibition of sea-going antiquities, such as ships’ bells, ropes, flags, fossils and fish posters.

Eureka! Halifax, West Yorkshire
In July 2012, I took the children to visit Eureka! The National Children’s Museum in Halifax. We visited earlier in the year for Meg’s birthday but I didn’t get around to blogging about it then.
Aimed at children under 11, it’s a fantastic ‘hands on’ museum where children are encouraged to learn through play. There are six different galleries with various interactive exhibits in each gallery.
