Norfolk nChance Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 Hi All, Not sure if its in the right thread, so if not Dev's please move it or let me know. Was back in the UK last couple of weeks back home in Leeds West Yorkshire. Had some time on my hands thought I'd visit the Leeds Armouries. It was a brilliant day out. Completely free as well (proving I'm still a Yorkshireman). References https://royalarmouries.org/leeds Not much for the Age of Sail enthusiast but more British Military History through the ages. It was built in the 90s after the Tower of London had most of its captured relicts just sat in storage with no room to show it off. They do lectures and events see website(includes AOS). On the ground floor at the far end you'll find captured French Cannons and Carronades... There a lot bigger seeing them in real life, I can't imagine how some of NAs vessel remained afloat. Getting there, Leeds Central Railway station, just ask for directions to the FREE Water Taxis. Only one and it takes 10 minutes taking you there directly. Give the wife your Credit Card, and tell her you'll meet at the end of the day. The shopping is much improved from my day also... Its a shameless Plug... But I was so surprised and really enjoyed my time I thought I'd share it regards Norfolk nChance. 3
