Find out how the town became a thriving shipbuilding and fishing centre, explore its growth as a seaside resort, and uncover the workings of the fascinating Tudor building itself. Exhibits on display include finds from the Anglo-Saxon ship burial at Snape, Roman excavations from Barber’s Point, as well as a series of photographs and artefacts depicting life in the coastal town.
