The Victorian Street scene is a fairly new addition to Hornsea Museum. The street is known as Burn's Lane and runs down the centre of the main museum complex. The street contains a number of shop fronts designed in Victorian style. In the shop windows are a wide variety of goods that would have been found in the high street of a Victorian market town.
Along the cobbled street is an Ironmonger's shop, displaying a range of hardware, an Apothecary displaying a range of medicinal products and a Barber's shop, complete with traditional red and white pole.
Also in Burn's Lane is the entrance to the new Hornsea Pottery displays recently acquired and refurbished with the help of the Heritage Lottery Fund.
The Burn's Lane project was generously supported by the Hornsea Carnival Committee with additional support from the Coastal Tourism Initiative Scheme.
