Burn's Lane
|
The Victorian Street scene is a new addition to Hornsea Museum. The street is known as Burn's Lane and runs down the side of the main museum complex. The street contains a number of shop fronts designed in Victorian style. The shop frontages display a wide variety of goods typical of those found in the high street of a traditional Victorian market town.
Along the cobbled street is an Ironmonger's shop, displaying a range of hardware, an Apothecary displaying a range of medicinal products and a Barber's shop, complete with traditional red and white pole. Also in Burn's Lane is the entrance to the second room of the new Hornsea Pottery displays recently acquired and refurbished with the help of the Heritage Lottery Fund. In here are later examples of the pottery dating up to its closure in 2000.
