Lakeland Motor Museum, Independent motor museum in Backbarrow, England
The Lakeland Motor Museum exhibits over 30,000 motoring items, including classic cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and automotive memorabilia under one roof.
Established in 1978 at Grange-over-Sands near Holker Hall, the museum relocated to a former Reckitt's Blue Dye Works facility in Backbarrow during 2010.
The Campbell Bluebird Exhibition presents the achievements of Sir Malcolm Campbell and Donald Campbell, who secured 21 world speed records for Britain.
The museum opens daily until 4:30 PM with free parking, a riverside café, gift shop, and wheelchair accessibility throughout the entire facility.
The collection includes a 1936 Bentley owned by Donald Campbell, a 1913 Star 15.9, and a complete 1920s garage recreation with period equipment.
