ONE section
of
the salt ship (sadly, just a third) found in Nantwich is on display in our
second
gallery, complete with graphics and other ways to help you to enjoy
seeing it.
Call in to see it - and to
SMELL the Nantwich mud in which the ship lay buried!
Mirrors help you to see the
salt ship from all angles, and there are photographs and other displays
which tell the story of the rescue and preservation mission. There is
also a display of artefacts found with the salt ship.
THE story of the recovery of the salt
ship can be found here. Pictures of the return of
the salt ship can be found on
this page.
