The Bankfiled Museum is located in Halifax, England. It is located in an elegant setting, near Akroyd Park, in the center of the protected area of the homonymous village. The museum, which has been in existence since 1887, tells the story of Halifax and Calderdale, through the rich and diverse collections that it keeps in its rooms. The museum is housed in an elegant Victorian mansion that was once the home of Colonel Edward Akroyd, a local mill owner, philanthropist and MP.
