The Malton and Norton Heritage Centre is home to the Woodhams Stone Collection, a volunteer-run local history archive covering the market towns of Malton and Norton from 1900 to 1960. Collections include postcards, social history items and ephemera, alongside heritage trails exploring historic buildings and a research notebook useful for family and local history enquiries. It's best suited to those interested in local heritage and genealogy, though the centre is currently closed to visitors, with research enquiries handled by email. Located in Norton-on-Derwent, North Yorkshire, it's close to Malton station, just 0.4 miles away, and there are 25 bookable places to stay within 5 miles, making it easy to combine with a wider exploration of the area.
