Description

I went to the Open Day at the Museum Collections Centre - 25 Dollman Street on the 13th of May 2012.

At the Dollman Street Stores they have objects that are not currently on display in the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery or Think Tank. Some items used to be in the old Museum of Science & Industry on Newhall Street.

The garage area of the warehouse with old cars, motorbikes etc.

Finally I have found the statue of George Dawson at Dollman Street. It used to be in Chamberlain Square (a long time ago).

It was near the fountain and Chamberlain Memorial.

Statue of Dawson 1821 - 1876 Dawson was a non-conformist preacher who advocated a "civic gospel" and campaigned for civic reform.

Public Art Collection.

When it was in Chamberlain Square it was Grade II listed.
