Natural History joins the Museum

Written By Thomas Bowden

Today we can proudly unveil our first Natural History specimens, which are now uploaded to the searchable catalogue!

The Department of Natural History contains a vast array of specimens, ranging from sea sponges to shells, dried algae, ‘curios’, and geological samples. In the fullness of time, more of these items will be digitised and uploaded!

An example of our ‘Botanical Curios’ section, devoted to unusual seed pods, plant pieces, and more. BC1.
