So today we visited the #YorkshireMuseum - mainly for the history. My son is big into history & we don't get many Romans in Texas!

The museum is England's 2nd purpose built museum & was founded by John Philips, nephew of William Smith (of geo. map fame), geologist, major figure with BAAS etc.

This is the reading room where the displays are about Smith's maps.

On entering, my son picked up a book, went to the first seat and made himself comfortable. I think this would have made Philips proud.
