Dorset Museum has around four million artefacts but, for decades, the vast majority of them haven't been stored or displayed there because of a lack of space - until now.

A brand new, bespoke, Collections Discovery Centre has been created in a basement that never existed before, with conditions perfect for conserving and preserving items.

Our reporter Charlotte Foot has been for a look around one of the old storage sites and the new centre.
