Artefacts

View key items from our rich collection of objects and models online, including some in 3D. Included are objects on display at 1 Birdcage Walk such as models by Cherry Hill and a First World War car made by prisoners of war. Other items are non-display objects from our archive store, such as George Stephenson’s railway tokens and a working steam hammer forged by James Nasmyth’s works. For the first time we are able to showcase these objects online [3D images requires flash to view].
