Plans to refurbish Egyptian galleries at the Ashmolean
Oxford Mail (Reg Little)
A £5M redevelopment is being planned at Oxford’s Ashmolean Museum to showcase the museum’s world famous collections from ancient Egypt.

The work would focus on part of the ground floor in the original Ashmolean building in Beaumont Street which was largely untouched by the major expansion.
