Regimental history / RICHMOND, NORTH YORKSHIRE
The Green Howards Museum
Follow the experiences of soldiers through uniforms, personal objects and medals in the former Trinity Church at the centre of the Market Place. The displays connect Richmond’s military heritage with individual lives and wider conflicts. This is a focused regimental collection, distinct from the town-and-Dales stories at Richmondshire Museum.

Before you go
Allow time for a few personal stories rather than trying to absorb every medal label. Check whether the Normanby Room is in use for an event before planning around that room.
