If you want to know about the history of the area you are visiting including the area's contribution to the First World War then this lovely building is well worth an hour or more of your time. We found the WW1 exhibition very moving and are well aware of how much time research takes. We were warmly welcomed by the friendly lady taking admission fees. There is a nice café in the building too. The talented ladies belonging to the local Knitting Group have knitted pictures of the buildings in Settle. I'm not creative at all so was in awe of the work which has gone into these pictures. We enjoyed our visit. It was lovely to see this building coming back to life - congratulations to all concerned.

Really nice museum of local interest looked after by some very friendly ladies and well worth an hour of your time.

We travelled on the train for the day and popped into the museum with friends. We were impressed by the building itself and the exhibitions and their content. Well worth seeking out. But be warned it isn't open every day - check opening times.
