Housed in the striking medieval Bayle Gate, the Bayle Museum in Bridlington offers a fascinating look at the town’s rich and varied history. Once part of a monastic complex and later used as a courthouse and prison, the building itself is a historical attraction. Inside, visitors will find well-curated exhibits on topics ranging from the Augustinian priory and town governance to local military involvement and everyday life through the centuries.
Engaging for all ages, the museum brings history to life with interactive displays and artefacts. Situated near Bridlington Priory and just a short walk from the town centre, the Bayle Museum is a hidden gem ideal for a cultural day out in East Yorkshire.
