About
The museum can be found on the Sea Brows overlooking the Cumbrian town of Maryport on the edge of the Solway Firth Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. At the western end of the Hadrian's Wall World Heritage Site, the museum displays the fascinating collection of artefacts discovered at the adjacent Roman fort and civilian settlement. Visitors can explore people's lives and beliefs from 2000 years ago. The museum is housed in a Victorian Naval Reserve Training Battery and is a registered charity. To keep our visitors safe we have instigated a number of measures following Government and industry specific guidelines. We have the Visit Britain 'Good to Go' accreditation.
