Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Discovery Museum, Blandford Square Blandford House was originally the Co-operative Wholesale Society Headquarters for the Northern Region, designed by Oliver, Leeson and Wood in 1899.
The Municipal Museum of Science and Industry was housed here in 1978, changing its name to the Discovery Museum in 1993. One of its main exhibits is Turbinia, the 34 metre long ship built by Charles Algernon Parsons to test the advantages of using a steam turbine to power ships. It also features examples of Joseph Swan's early light bulbs which were invented on Tyneside. Inside, the building is reported to have the best decorated gent's toilets in Newcastle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcastle_Discovery_Museum |
