Advantages: Free, Lots Of History Disadvantages: Admission Charges For Some Exhibits
The Elsecar Heritage Centre is situated in the small, former Mining Village of Elsecar about seven and a half miles to the South of Barnsley in South Yorkshire. It is described as a Heritage and Craft Centre and since it opened it has won numerous awards.
I often try and make a point of visiting such attractions as I find that it is an excellent way to learn about the local area and since entry into the Centre is free there really is no excuse to not visit this place whilst in the area.
The Centre is located within an old Colliery Workshop and Ironworks that once belonged to the Earl Fitzwilliam whose residence was the nearby Wentworth Estate and the magnificent Wentworth Woodhouse Country House.
The Elsecar Heritage Centre includes various carefully restored Buildings, many of which are positioned alongside the attractive ...
Advantages: Caters for people of all needs Disadvantages: Unclean, run down, smelly areas, unfriendly staff
assisting animals going through labour. From then on, Ponderosa was known as the Ponderosa Rural Therapeutic Centre, and their motto is to "Bridge the gap between disabled and able bodied people"
Access
Ponderosa can be found in Heckmondwike, West Yorkshire. If coming from Manchester, you need to come off Junction 26 off the M62 then onto the A638 to Cleckheaton. From there the centre is signposted.

Advantages: 2 for 1 offers on a lot Disadvantages: parking quite high to pay if only staying a morning or afternoon
Scarborough Sea Life Centre is well worth a visit - we had a 2 for 1 offer from Tesco's and I have recently seen a similar offer on a particular brand of tea bags. I often seen voucher of a similar nature in The Mirror Newspaper and have seen The Sun advertising vouchers of this nature too.
Price:
It costs £12.95 per adult, £11.95 for concessions, under 5''s go free, and children have a cheaper rate, which I do not remember as it wasn't applicable to our group. (Prices were for October 2008).
Parking:
We had to pay for 3 hours parking, which was about £3.50. I found this to be quite high, if you only planned to stay at the centre for a few hours. However there is plenty to see and do at the centre and you could easily stay all day. As we'd planned to go somewhere else on this day, it did turn out to be a little expensive and so we ...
