Small local museum in a historic market town — photograph gallery displays (archaeology, social history, Pontefract Castle models, licorice memorabilia) and the compact Victorian/Georgian streetscape on Salter Row. Best visited weekday mornings for low crowds and to use available daylight through display cases; late afternoon brings softer light on the exterior. Check opening hours and any temporary exhibit closures before visiting. Space is tight indoors and lighting is often low; expect to use
