The Turner Museum of Glass is housed in the Department of Engineering Materials at the University of Sheffield's Mappin Street Campus. It is one of the UK's most interesting displays of glass, and is unrivalled in it's collection of glass from the 1920's to 1950's.

It was founded in 1943 by Professor W.E.S. Turner of the University.
