"A wonderland of fairground history and vintage mechanical and steam-powered magic"
Overview
A unique museum, the Scarborough Fair Collection is a magical world of mechanical fairground entertainment. Loud, brash and colourful; traction engines, fairground and mechanical organs, and fairground rides sit alongside vintage cars and motorbikes. Many rides are in perfect working order, and there’s a tea room where music is provided by one of the organs.

About the area
North Yorkshire, with its two National Parks and two designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is England’s largest county and one of the most rural. This is prime walking country, from the heather-clad heights of the North York Moors to the limestone country that is so typical of the Yorkshire Dales – a place of contrasts and discoveries, of history and legend.
