Great little army museum and although it does not say it is cheaper for veteran's.
Popped in to have a look around, excellent layout very informative. Highly recommend a visit.
The museum inside is very neat, very clean. All descriptions are very nicely described, copied and numbered very well. Inside there is a great mix of three historical eras that fit together very well. The museum also has a bathroom, clean, which you can use, the shop is quite small but the prices and souvenirs are great! I recommend it for a small attraction.
Really good little museum. If you are interested in the army then there is alot to see, at certain times you can handle objects. My son wanted to visit but he's not really into all the reading but still enjoyed it. We had a game of battleships too and a few goes on the shooting game. I'd definitely recommend a visit. Reasonably priced and ticket valid for 12 months.
Wonderfully designed museum, well worth a visit.
The museum tells the story of the Yorkshire regiments from their raising to today. The museum is designed chronologically, with exhibits and artifacts from each period. A helpful timeline shows key points, such as battles, world events, and the structure of the units, such as individual regiments being raised and folded together as the army reduced in size, but it is the artifacts on display which tell the story. I'm deeply impressed by the breadth of the items on display here, as well as their explanatory text.
Someone knew what they were doing, and had access to hundreds of years of artifacts to make for a compelling experience. Everything here is done right. The lighting, the organization, and there's even things for smaller kids to do. You can't go wrong with a visit.

Hey, if you're into war history, you gotta check this out! Take two hours to read through all the info, it's worth it. And the price is super cheap for such an awesome experience.
What a hidden little gem! We found this museum by chance and it was fantastic! The staff were friendly and the museum pieces were well looked after. There's lots to interact with to keep little ones engaged. The gift shop was fully stocked and very clean. Well worth a visit!
