Description
Discover the story of football in Northallerton through a display of fascinating artefacts and local stories spanning centuries, from early matches to the development of the modern game. Created by the Northallerton Heritage Hub and curated by Charlotte Gibson as part of her student placement, this exhibition celebrates the town’s long connection to football, especially in a World Cup year. Visit the exhibition on the ground floor of Northallerton Library to explore the people, teams and memories that have shaped the game locally.
