    A64 from York, A169 from Malton

Parking
There is no parking at the Museum except for disabled visitors and invited guests. There is parking in St Hilda's Terrace though it is normally difficult to find an empty space! There is a large car park at West Cliff (fee payable) for coaches and cars. The Museum is less than 5 minutes walk from this car park and Pannett Park may be entered on foot at the top of Chubb Hill near the roundabout with St. Hilda's Terrace.

Coach Drop Off point
Coaches may drop off visitors either at the top of Chubb Hill (see sketch map) or opposite the main Pannett Park gates in St Hilda's Terrace. Please note it is not possible to turn at the latter point.
