SUMMARY:The Newhaven-Dieppe Ferry Service Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand this exhibition celebrates over 200 years of the Newhaven – Dieppe Ferry Service. One of our most celebrated exhibitions\, it features tales of the many famous (and infamous) people who have travelled on the service\, the accidents and mishaps that occurred\, the role of the ferries during both World Wars\, and the story of the last British-manned ferry on the route. \n  \nAs part of the exhibition we will be showing films of the ferries going back 90 years and we’d love you to share your memories of crossings to Dieppe with us. For younger visitors there are crafts and activities to enjoy. \n  \nThe museum is open Tuesdays\, Wednesdays\, Fridays and Saturdays 11am – 4pm. \n  \nWe also have a special FREE day on Easter Monday\, 6th April 11am – 4pm.
