Our galleries are quietest on weekdays and weekend mornings. At busy times, particularly on Saturdays, you may need to queue for our temporary exhibitions.

We’re undertaking some research with website visitors to learn more about how people find access-related information provided by museums. This survey shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!

Barber-Lomax's name is in a single line box at the bottom and above is an heraldic shield divided into 4 sections. 2 have a cross containing 5 shells, the other two 3 fleur de lys above jagged lines. Behind this is a design of stylised foliage (?) ribbons (?), 2 helmets from suits of armour, one with a lion holding a sword with a white rose on a shield hanging from its neck, the other with an elephant in profile with a castle on its back and the motto above on a flourish.</p>
