Ryedale Folk Museum
An open-air folk museum in the moorland village of Hutton-le-Hole, with more than twenty relocated and rebuilt Yorkshire buildings.
Ryedale Folk Museum sits in the picturesque moorland village of Hutton-le-Hole and has more than 20 relocated historic buildings, including medieval cruck-framed farmhouses, an Elizabethan manor, an Iron Age roundhouse, an old-fashioned shop and a schoolroom. Together they show centuries of life for the people of the Yorkshire moors. Tickets cost about £10, and opening hours are shorter in winter. A brook runs through the village green, sheep wander the lanes, and it's easy to stroll around the village afterwards. The museum is about 12 km from Pickering.
