What the charity does

The museum is housed in a building erected in 1785 on the site of the charity school attended by James Cook between 1736 and 1740. It features a reconstruction of an early C18 schoolroom and interactive displays show his voyages of discovery. Visitors can learn how to use a sextant and see the education system that provided the starting point for the great navigator, explorer and chartmaker.
