Description: | Sunderland Museum and Winter Gardens illuminated to celebrate the Silver Jubilee of George V's reign in 1935. The Museum and Winter Gardens were built in 1879. Inside the Winter Gardens was a magnificent collection of tropical plants and flowers. It also housed birds and a pond with goldfish. The gardens had to be demolished after a parachute mine fell on the nearby Victoria Hall in 1941. In 2001 a new Winter Gardens was built on the eastern end of the Museum. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | living in the North East events South Tyneside | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
