Join a guide for a fascinating tour of the Edmund Gardner Pilot Ship, the largest object in National Museums Liverpool’s collections. During her working life of almost 30 years, the Edmund Gardner was essentially a base out in the Irish Sea for the Pilotage Service, providing accommodation for up to 32 pilots at a time. The pilots met all shipping approaching the Mersey and guided them into and out of the docks, to ensure their safety.
Come and find out their fascinating story on this free tour by booking your place on 0151 478 4545.
