A THREE-DAY exhibition based on the transport heritage of a town is about to begin.

The exhibition at Bedale Museum contains photographs, pictures, documents and artefacts dating from 1650 to the 1950s.

There is even a picture of pioneering pilot Amy Johnson and her husband Jim Mollison landing in a field at RAF Leeming.

Bedale Harbour also features in the exhibition.

The harbour is a canal basin that was to be part of the navigation linking Bedale to the Swale and then the Ouse.

The project began in 1768 but was not completed because of a lack of money.

Also on show will be models of agricultural carts, railway memorabilia and maps showing waterways leading to Bedale.

It runs from Thursday to Saturday and will be open from 1pm to 5pm on Thursday, 10am to 12.30pm and 2pm to 5.30pm on Friday, and 9.30am to 12.30pm on Saturday.
