West Kirby Museum

Reserve Collection

In addition to the items on display, the West Kirby Museum Commemorating Charles Dawson Brown has a collection held in storage awaiting further analysis and interpretation. Hopefully one day we will be able to make them available to view for the public but in the meantime, this online display allows a rare glimpse of these rarely-seen artefacts.
