The Yorkshire Waterways Museum was a multi-award-winning museum in Goole, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
Its mission was to 'Use the heritage, arts and environment of the Yorkshire waterways as a resource for learning and regeneration'. The museum also hosted a Tom Pudding hoist which is grade II listed. This allowed little tub boats carrying coal from South Yorkshire to be unloaded at Goole Docks and put into ocean-going vessels.
Liquidation
In early May 2019 it was announced that, as a consequence of ongoing funding shortfalls, the museum and its associated charity, The Sobriety Project, were insolvent and that the museum would close on 15 May.
