This is what the IWM site has to say about IWM North

Most of the coverage I've seen about the museum concentrated on the architecture and not the contents

Hi David
you are right...the architecture gets top billing.
I just wondered if any of our members had visited the museum.

I plan to nip along when I get home April 2005 as its only half an hour or so down the road from me in Wigan.

Cheers
Peter
