Schools@The Bell Pettigrew
The Bell Pettigrew is the University’s natural history museum. Although the space has been modernised over the years, it remains very similar to the way it appeared at the time of its foundation in 1908 and continues to employ an Edwardian style of display. Programmes related to science and art are available.
The museum is located in the Bute building off St Mary’s Quad and is accessed via Door C.
