November images

The Museum closed to the public on Saturday 24 November in order for our ground floor redevelopment to begin in earnest. Much preparation work needed to be done in order to prepare our spaces for building and construction work and some of our staff have had to find new homes and relocate to temporary office spaces.

Take a look at the images below for a peek behind the scenes at some of our preparations.
