Turner Fishing Museum |
|||||||||||||||||
| The Turner Fishing Museum was started by renowned Plymouth artist Richard Clark and Mike Turner, a local fisherman, in one of Plymouth's oldest buildings. It's a great place to wander around if you can find it! It charts the history of Southwest fishing with some interactive tanks for the kids to touch dogfish, crabs and so on. Best of all it's FREE to get in (although Richard says he sometimes charges a pound to get out!). The centrepiece is a 48 foot long shark made from chicken wire and plaster, lots of plaster! |

| How do you find it? Well, it's about 300yards from Cap'n Jaspers. Walk past the Glassworks, past the Crown & Anchor and follow the signs for Anita's Antiques. When you get there turn right. | |||||||||||||||||
