Leeds' 'danger room' where deadly items with potentially fatal risks are locked away
The Leeds Discovery Centre is home to more than a million objects and is used to store parts of the Leeds collection which are not currently on display. and contained inside Store 2, there are some deadly finds.
Clare Brown, Leeds Museums and Galleries’ curator of natural sciences, said: “There’s a natural sense of mystery and curiosity around Store 2 and the objects inside, and they’ve certainly been safely locked away for good reason. “Studying these hazardous objects very carefully can offer curators a unique insight into everything from natural history and geology right through to mass production and social trends, and hopefully, we can pass some of those fascinating lessons on to our visitors.”
