This museum, devoted to the River Tyne's maritime history, is appropriately located in the Quayside area. Taking pride of place amongst the centre's many exhibits are a range of finely crafted model ships - colliers, tankers, sailing ships, and warships - realized in minute detail by shipyard workers. There is also a scale model of the Quayside area itself as it looked in the late 18th century; a prosperous time for Newcastle as a trading port. Refreshments are available.
