The main museum arch is the focal point of Brighton's
fishing quarter. It
contains a 27ft beach boat, prints, photographs and memorabilia of
Brighton seafront life from the Regency days to the post-war boom in
pleasure boat operations. A
computer archive is also available which can be consulted for more
information about the local fishing and boating fraternity.
The museum also operates a 12 seater passenger boat, Skylark, off
the beach in fair weather during the summer months. There are also two
shellfish stalls, a smokehouse and a smoked fish shop adjacent to
the Museum. |
