Swansea Museum Collections Centre is the museum's store, housed in a historically important building on the former Hafod / Morfa Copper Works site in Landore, once the centre of world copper smelting activity, with only a few buildings left to mark this period in Swansea's history. The Collections Centre itself is not open to the public, so it suits those making specific enquiries rather than casual visitors; you can contact the team by phone or email for more information. If you're staying nearby, Swansea station is a mile away and Swansea Bay beach 2.2 miles away, with 40 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays for those exploring the wider area.
