New Walk Museum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The New Walk Museum and Art Gallery is a museum on New Walk in Leicester, England, not far from the city centre. Two dinosaur skeletons are permanently installed in the museum — a cetiosaur found in Rutland, and a plesiosaur from Barrow upon Soar. The Museum is running a 2007 exhibition on the late, local playwright, Joe Orton to mark the fourty years since his death. Orton was born and raised on Saffron Estate in Leicester.
