====The Energy Hall==== [[File:Science Museum - East Hall 2390.jpg|upright|thumb|The Energy Hall]] [[File:Steam engine in Science Museum Power gallery.webm|thumb|Video of a [[Corliss steam engine]] in the Energy Gallery in motion]] The Energy Hall is the first area that most visitors see as they enter the building. On the ground floor, the gallery contains a variety of [[steam engines]], including the [[Old Bess (beam engine)|oldest surviving James Watt beam engine]], which together tell the story of the British [[Industrial Revolution]]. Also on display is a recreation of James Watt's garret workshop from his home, [[Heathfield Hall]], using over 8,300 objects removed from the room, which was sealed after his 1819 death, when the hall was demolished in 1927.<ref name="SML">{{cite web |title=Watt's workshop |url=https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co52335/james-watts-garret-workshop-used-1790-1819 |publisher=Science Museum, London |access-date=2020-05-07 |archive-date=11 June 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200611142640/https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co52335/james-watts-garret-workshop-used-1790-1819 |url-status=live }}</ref>
