Calling museum geeks. We've googled, telephoned, checked archives, newspaper reports, and spoken to specialists, but after a year of collecting data on closed museums in the UK we're officially stuck on some venues. Can you help? Have a look at our list: https://t.co/6tzHP3pqLh

"I have no feelings & not many memories. I’m not a very retrospective person. It always amazes me that so many people remember every—cross every 't' & dot every 'i'. Not me…"

Public art collections are not an asset, they are a living legacy owned in common for current and future generations.

The elegant pleasure grounds of the early 18th century Abbot's Hall in Suffolk have been listed at Grade II. 🙌

Now home to @FoodMuseumUK, the gardens contain an ornamental canal, a walled garden, and the remains of a medieval camping ground.

Booted up my 16-yr-old high school laptop to open a WWII database that lives on a CD, works only on Windows 98, & exists no where else. The creator is dead. Need help to save the data from technological oblivion. At stake are stories of 5k airmen who fought Hitler from sky. (1/4)
