York Visitor Centre

Reviewed By Q7840EUdanl - Bunbury, Australia

The Visitor Centre is generally our first stop when looking for additional information and directions to local attractions. With Covid restrictions, websites are not always up to date as we discovered after arriving in York on the Sunday afternoon. Somewhat frustrated, I visited the Centre on the Monday where a lovely lady, Beck, provided updated information and suggested a number of other attractions that were open to visitors in the York district. Just brilliant and ensured that our three days could be full of attractions to see and visit. Other staff equally as engaging and helpful later on. Good range of souvenirs and small gifts available. Great range of brochures. Free wifi a boon.

York Residency Museum

Reviewed By Q7840EUdanl - Bunbury, Australia

The museum itself has an interesting history. It dates to the 1850's, initially serving as the Depot Superintendent's Quarters (the last remaining part of York's Convict Depot), then the home of the Resident Magistrate, was incorporated into the old York hospital as maternity rooms, then the Matron's Quarters and became a museum in 1972. I love it when historic buildings are renovated, restored and retained. The interior houses a diverse range of exhibits covering York's history; shackles, the bell of St John's, old tools, kitchen utensils, etc. Some I was familiar with, the open fireplace and array of pots and pans, the butter churn and some others which were features of Irish households in the not too distant past. Wonderful that the York Society and Shire place such a value on the history of the district.
