This lovely old school in which the Museum is housed was originally a National Church of England School for Sutton and Stoneferry and was built in 1859 and closed in 1977.

About 20 years later it opened as a museum and educational centre for the villages of Sutton and Wawne.
Entirely run by a team of willing volunteers it is now regarded as one of the best history centres in the area.
Sources available include the school admission registers dating back to 1876 and a vast selection of indexed photos and slide collections dating from the 1890s, which are just two of the valuable sources available for people researching their family history, which is now a core part of our work.
Once again a selection of St. James Parish birth, marriage and death registers, kindly loaned to us by the Treasure House in Beverley, will be available for scrutiny in the museum on both Friday and Saturday.
We are going to do an exhibition of Royal Coronations from Queen Victoria in 1838 up to Charles 3rd
