Museums and galleries

Salford Museum and Art Gallery in Peel Park on the Crescent Salford

The museum is an intriguing mix of Victorian and 20th century architecture. The building incorporates Local History Library., Lark Hill Place, The LifeTimes Gallery, The VIctorian Gallery and four temporary exhibition spaces.

Ordsall Hall Museum - a jewel in Salford's crown

The museum reflects 600 years of architecture and social history. Although the building has been extended and adapted throughout its long history, it remains one of the finest examples of Tudor architecture in the North West. Our web pages for Ordsall Hall will also give you information about Ordsall's restoration fundraising campaign - we need to raise £900,000 (you can even donate online!).

Details of exhibitions and events at Salford Museum and Art Gallery & Ordsall Hall from January to June 2008 are available to download below.
