Science Museum director Dame Margaret Weston from Stroud dies

By Bradley Young Science Museum Group Chairman Dame Mary Archer bestows a Fellowship on Dame Margaret Weston at her Gloucestershire home An Oakridge-born Dame of the British Empire and the first female director of a national museum passed away last week aged 94. Margaret Weston, who went to Stroud High School, was appointed director of the Science Museum in London in 1973 and oversaw innovative exhibitions and acquisitions including Concorde, the Apollo 10 module which circled the Moon. She helped set up the Museum in the Park in Stroud in her retirement, after travelling the world as a museum consultant. As a student during the war, she took part in fire-watching on the High School roof and witnessed a German pilot parachute from a burning plane and land nearby before being arrested by her father, a Captain of the Home Guard.
