The Grosvenor Street premises showing the 1977 mural by Ken Billyard and Walter Kershaw. The Manchester Museum of Science and Technology, as it was originally named opened in October 1969 what was the former Oddfellows Hall on Grosvenor Street, Chorlton-on-Medlock. In 1972, the Museum changed its name to the North Western Museum of Science and Industry in order to reflect the regional scope of its collections. Renamed the Greater Manchester Museum of Science of Industry, it relocated in September 1983 to the former Liverpool Road Station.
