The Shefton Museum of Greek Art and Archaeology was an archaeological museum at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, England, which opened in 1956^[1] and closed in 2008. Its collections are now part of the Great North Museum: Hancock.

The museum was located in the Department of Classics in the Armstrong Building of the main University campus. It was founded in 1956 by Professor Brian B. Shefton with a grant of £20 from the university's Rector, Charles Bosanquet.^[1] Since then the collection has grown to over 800 objects.^[1] Professor B.B. Shefton was the curator until 1984 when his role was taken over by Professor Tony Spawforth.^[1] Shefton died on 25 January 2012, aged 92.^[2]

As part of the Great North Museum Project the Shefton collection, along with Museum of Antiquities, was moved to the Great North Museum:Hancock. On 18 April 2008 the museum closed in preparation for the relocation of its collections to the newly renovated Hancock Museum, which opened in May 2009.^[3]
