Important information for visitors

Until summer 2025, there is a new visitor route at the National Maritime Museum while we carry out essential improvements to the Museum's roof. Most galleries will still be open as normal, and special exhibitions are currently free for all visitors. However, the Great Map and AHOY! will be closed for the duration of the works.

Hartlepool Built

This website contains details of every ship built in Hartlepool and West Hartlepool from the 1830s to the 1960s when the last shipyards closed. The amount of information varies, but where possible includes: ship specifications, owners, Masters, crew lists, photographs, plans and any other information that helps build a full history of each vessel. The voluneers operating the site are also seeking more information, and invite any relevant photographs, objects or simply memories of any Hartlepool-built ships.
