Whitby in north east England is today a bustling little town that attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. Many come here because of its quaint narrow streets and it's old-worldly charms, others to see its old traditional working harbour. There is no denying that Whitby is a town that is steeped in a rich history and at the centre of this history is the story of Captain James Cook.
Reference to this local hero, who sailed from here on his epic voyages of discovery to the New World, are everywhere that you look. In fact the residents of this town are so proud of their connections that they have dedicated an entire museum to him, which is known as the Captain Cook MemorialMuseum.
This museum is located on one of these narrow streets that so typify the old part of the town. The building itself that houses this museum ...

In October of 07 I went on a day trip to Ypres, Belgium. I was with my schools GCSE History class, as we had been studying The Home Front. So we had the option of taking a trip to Belgium.
I have to say going to Ypres was one of the best experience of my life. It is absolutely beautiful their, it is vintage and very town-like. Going in October meant it was absolutely freezing but that did not effect my feelings on the day.

Officially known as the Mechanical MemoriesMuseum this is a small museum that enjoys a location right on Brighton's seafront. It is located in an area known as "The Arches" which stretches either side of the pier and the museum lies just to the west of the pier, but very close to it, maybe less than 100 metres away.
The Arches is the name given to the area that occupies the space below the promenade at beach level. Since the promenade is raised above the level of the beach it effectively sits on top of a bridge and "The Arches" are the arches of this bridge that date back to Victorian times. These arches are now prime locations for businesses and are mainly occupied by gift shops and cafes, they are located right on the edge of the beach but they do have the disadvantage that they are not visible from the promenade. Fortunately ...
