Summerlee, Museum of Scottish Industrial Life, formerly known as Summerlee Heritage Park, is an industrial museum in Coatbridge, North Lanarkshire, Scotland. It was built on the site of the old Summerlee Ironworks and incorporated the main workshop of the former Hydrocon Crane factory. It temporarily closed in 2006, but reopened on 26 September 2008 following a £10m refurbishment (pictured right). The former main hall was completely redesigned by North Lanarkshire Council's in-house Design Team and now includes a stainless steel café pod and futuristic viewing pavilion. The museum aims to show Lanarkshire's contribution to engineering, and incorporates interactive displays and a children's "Discovery Zone". The museum also incorporates several railway steam locomotives, preserved carriages from a 1960s era Glasgow Class 311 and has a short working tram line. ==The site== This contains... * the main exhibition hall * the remains of the former iron works * the now unnavigable Monkland Canal and basin * the railway * the sawmill * the miners cottages * the allotments * the tramway and depot * the mine tour and surface buildings 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Summerlee, Museum of Scottish Industrial Life」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
