As part of #LTMMysteriesOfTheDepot, we’re exploring the exciting collections material on the 270 pallets stored floor to ceiling in our Museum Depot. Occasionally we come across items that may not be as they first appear... Can you guess what this rather large item might be?🤔

So it's not just heritage jobs that are problematic at @cvlifenews... - 'Competitive' rates for spa therapists and cleaners - Lower band rate for swimming teachers at £9.00ph is below minimum wage - Duty managers paid just £12.50 per hour What's going wrong in #Coventry?

The Grundfos pump in this photo is cut away showcasing the motors on the inside. Did you know this is where you get your drinking water from? This post was curated by Work Experience Students Brendan and William!

This Grundfos pump is a smaller version of what is used to supply water around the country. It is made of stainless steel and bronze to prevent it from corroding because they are often used underwater. The water helps to cool the motors to prevent them from overheating.

Works to return our Boulton & Watt engine built in 1820 back to steam continue, but we’ve had some challenges! A disused one inch rusty pipe, buried beneath stone floor slabs started to leak just after Christmas.

Imagine there was a museum showcasing the amazing work that women do within science, technology, engineering, arts and maths. This International Women’s Day, we’re hosting a takeover at the London Museum of Water & Steam, and ‘rebranding’ as the London Museum of Women in STEM.

Our Waddon Engine had a broken lubricator and because of its shape, age, and design it was going to be rather difficult to replace. A friend of the museum Daniel Cotgreave was able to machine one out of solid Perspex bar at TI engineering.
