Description: Peterborough Museum & Art Gallery The building dates from 1816 and was the town house of newly-weds, Thomas and Charlotte Cooke. In 1856 the Priestgate mansion was sold to the 3rd Earl Fitzwilliam, who allowed it to be used as the city's first hospital, the Peterborough infirmary from 1857 until 1928. This Georgian building became the museum in 1931 and the art gallery was added in 1939. http://www.peterborough.gov.uk/page-488
