A step back in time
This wonderful Modern History Museum is near Malton in N Yorkshire
It was originally a POW camp with 33 huts. After the prisoners had all left, the camp was used for storage and then abandoned. In 1985 it was bought by Stan Johnson who intended to use it as a factory site to manufacture potato crisps but after three Italian ex-POWs asked permission to look around it as it had been their "home" the seed was planted to preserve it! Wonderfully preserved! More pictures here
