Our objective is to preserve artefacts, documents, pictures and the skills of the shipyard workers that contributed to a record of shipbuilding at Sunderland from 1346 until 1988 when the last shipyard closed. We think this history of shipbuilding and the ships that were built in Sunderland is worth preserving for future generations so that they may know the maritime heritage that their city is built upon. Please take the time to look at our web site and see if you agree.
