The Museum was originaly called the Summerlee Industrial Museum but after the refurbishment was rebranded as a Heritage Park. The former main hall of the museum was redesigned by North Lanarkshire Council's in-house Design Team and now includes a stainless steel café pod and futuristic viewing pavilion. The museum aims to show Lanarkshire's contribution to engineering, and incorporates interactive displays and a children's "Discovery Zone".
