BEAUTY IN UTILITY ⚙️ The Victorians believed even sewage pumps should be beautiful!
This philosophy of 'only the best' extended to all aspects of Victorian public works, even infrastructure hidden from public view was crafted with pride and artistry.
Our engine stands on eight magnificent Doric columns with delicate acanthus leaf motifs adorning the framework - symbolising immortality, rebirth, and resurrection!
Victorian sewage works were often designed to resemble churches and cathedrals due to a combination of factors; the prevailing architectural styles of the time; the desire to create impressive public works; and the influence of the engineers who designed them.
These structures, while serving a functional purpose, were also intended to be aesthetically pleasing and to inspire a sense of civic pride.
To see inside our museum, why not pop along on to our next open day:
