Leeds Museums and Galleries

Acronym: LES

Description

The largest local authority museum in the UK with nine different sites across the city of Leeds. The diverse collections are a result of two hundred years of collecting specimens and objects from across the world. Particularly large and diverse mollusc collections but holds many important collections from Yorkshire and the north of England.
