Can you help us with opening and/or closing dates for the museums listed below?
The Mapping Museums research team have compiled data on around 4,000 UK museums, but we’re missing crucial information about the opening and closing dates of a few venues. We know that these venues existed, but sometimes have little more than a postcard or an old publicity flyer.
If you can help us, do please get in touch with the project director, Professor Fiona Candlin on f.candlin@bbk.ac.uk.
