Disgusting Dockyard

Discover the disgusting side of Nelson’s navy this Halloween.

Delve into the thrilling world of the 18th-century Royal Navy! Meet the hardened crew ready to spill the secrets of life below deck: putrid food, bloodsucking first aid, dangerous weapons and how wee was actually useful! You will be able to handle, poke and prod objects during this fascinating event. This is history like you’ve never seen, or smelled, before. It’s history-packed, interactive and a little bit yucky.

Do YOU have the stomach for it?

Suitable for ages 5+
