Bracken Hall Countryside Centre and Museum, Local museum and nature center in Baildon, England
The center features educational exhibits about local wildlife, with indoor displays and outdoor gardens containing a pond for aquatic life observation.
The Yorkshire gritstone building from 1890 transformed from a bailiff's house into a museum, maintaining its traditional symmetrical rural architecture.
The museum exhibits the Heygate stone with neolithic petroglyphs, representing prehistoric art discovered in 2001 near Baildon Moor.
Visitors can access the museum on weekends from noon to 4 PM and participate in Wild Wednesday activities during school holidays.
The wildlife garden includes a trail of carved rocks and a pergola designed for plant growth and wildlife observation through suspended screens.
