Willow Bank Heritage Village is an affordable, fun and interactive living museum 1km south of Wakefield. With 20+ shop displays for you to explore, food & drink and lots more. A place to get dressed up, to embrace the fun, and immerse yourselves in times gone by.
We have actors who create a unique cultural experience offering various activities of the early 1900’s. Willowbank is ever growing and changing, so there is most likely something new every visit!
We will have running:
🌷 CHILDRENS SUITCASE MARKET - Come along and set up your suitcase stall under our sun shade, stay as long as you like. No need to book.
🌷 BARTER AND SELL MARKET - Please book your spot: [email protected]. A great opportunity to declutter or sell unused, unwanted, or handmade items etc.
