The Royal Armouries
If you thought the Royal Armouries was just about guns, knives and armour in display cases, think again. The museum in Leeds is a multi-million pound purpose built building.

Entry to the museum is free, though some events may be charged for.

Harlow Carr RHS Garden
Harlow Carr is the newest and most northerly of the four RHS gardens. This, along with its challenging growing conditions, offers an ideal place to view what can be grown successfully in the region. The garden is seeing exciting new developments while retaining its uniquely tranquil and welcoming atmosphere. Probably the most spectacular are the dramatic new Rose Revolution borders that edge the path to Gardens through Time.
