The Ulster Folk Museum opened on its present site at Cultra in 1964. There are outdoor exhibits illustrating both urban and rural life. There is also an indoor exhibition and a collection of many items. The Museum recommends 2-3 hours to see the outdoor section. This might be insufficient time for anyone with more than a slight curiosity. Almost all of the buildings are original having been removed and rebuilt in the grounds. This is the Old Rectory in “Ballycultra” town. It was built around 1717-18 at Lismacloskey, near Toomebridge, Co Antrim.
