Description: | Sunderland Library, Museum and Winter Gardens designed by J and T Tillman, 1879. The building's foundation stone was laid in 1877 by Alderman Storey in the presence of U.S. President Grant and it was completed in 1879. The Winter Gardens was demolished after being damaged by a parachute mine in 1941. The library moved into the former Binns Store in Fawcett Street in 1995. In 2001 a new Winter Gardens was built onto 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 Sunderland | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
