"In 1819, a museum was established in Philosophical Hall, Bond Street, by the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society, and in 1821 it opened to the public. In 1921, control of the museum was handed to the Corporation of Leeds which later became Leeds City Council. In 1862, Philosophical Hall was rebuilt in Park Row, where its stone portico can still be seen on the west side of the road.[1] In 1941, the museum building and artifacts were badly damaged by bombing.[2][3] In 1965 the museum was closed, and a few exhibits removed to a couple of rooms in the city library in 1966."
