yesterday 19/03/08 i went to docklands to visit the above museum,its spread over three floors of an old warehouse.
outside in the dock are the coaster robin and three different types of tugs.including one of the low small tugs used in the docks years ago.also there are five dutch type barges,one is still all cargo and one is used as a floating church.the others are houseboats.other parts of the warehouse are given over to restaurants with accomadation above.
the museum tells the history of the docks from the very begining,right up to the present day,there are lots of films to watch,and it takes a while to see it all.
to me it was a good day out,nearby is the canary wharf shopping centre.and other boats in various docks,such as a modern fishing boat,old passenger boats and more houseboats.
most of which can be seen from the docklands light railway.
the entrance ticket admission lasts for a whole year,i will be going again.as a senior it cost me £3.00.
