Located in a historic china clay building, we offer visitors an insight into the history of Charlestown and shipwrecks. We have the largest exhibition of artifacts recovered by divers, on public display in the UK. Walk through underground tunnels where clay trucks were pushed out to the ships in the port.
VILLAGE LIFE
