Abbey House Museum tour 2019 (Things to do in Leeds)
A journey back in time to the 19th century, where we explore the traditional high street shops and homes of the time.
Abbey House Museum. Things to do in Leeds.
Abbey House museum is situated just three miles from Leeds City Centre, and is one of the more unique things to do in Leeds. It is actually the former gate house to the ruins of the old onastery referred to as Kirkstall Abbey. Here is a link to a seperate video about that:
I was shocked to discover that many of the shops of that time are quite similar to those of today. Of course there are many noteable differences, but the general concepts are the same. The chemists back then sold many additional products just as they do today. The pub looks like many small, traditional pubs of today. It was fascinating to look around and see how similar, and set how different things were back then.
Up stairs there are a few other exhibitions which are changed semi regularly. On this visit there was an exhibition hilighting the dangers that accompany many every day items including childrens toys.
Another exhibition looks at childrens story books and features displays for Humpty Dumpty, and the old woman who lived in a shoe.

Leeds is a city in the northern English county of Yorkshire. On the south bank of the River Aire, the Royal Armouries houses the national collection of arms and artillery. Across the river, the redeveloped industrial area around Call Lane is famed for bars and live music venues under converted railway arches. Leeds Kirkgate Market features hundreds of indoor and outdoor stalls.
Leeds is a local government district of West Yorkshire, England, governed by Leeds City Council, with the status of a city and metropolitan borough. The metropolitan district includes the administrative centre Leeds and the ten towns of Farsley, Garforth, Guiseley, Horsforth, Morley, Otley, Pudsey, Rothwell, Wetherby and Yeadon.
The current city boundaries were set on 1 April 1974 by the provisions of the Local Government Act 1972, as part a reform of local government in England. The city is a merger of eleven former local government districts; the unitary City and County Borough of Leeds combined with the municipal boroughs of Morley and Pudsey, the urban districts of Aireborough, Garforth, Horsforth, Otley and Rothwell, and parts of the rural districts of Tadcaster, Wharfedale and Wetherby from the West Riding of Yorkshire.
For its first 12 years the city had a two-tier system of local government; Leeds City Council shared power with the West Yorkshire County Council. Since the Local Government Act 1985 Leeds City Council has effectively been a unitary authority, serving as the sole executive, deliberative and legislative body responsible for local policy, setting council tax, and allocating budget in the city, and is a member of the Leeds City Region Partnership. Thc City of Leeds is divided into 31 civil parishes and a single unparished area.
