Winter Gardens, Sunderland

The Winter Gardens are part of a complex of a greenhouse and museum in Sunderland, north-east England. It has its origins in an early-Victorian municipal museum and was pioneering for its time. It holds some nationally important objects.

The building was damaged during World War 2, and the greenhouse section shown here was built in 2001. It contains about 2,000 exotic plants.

Outside is the statue of a walrus, see
