CLIENT
The main client of this scheme is the Portsmouth Royal Dockyard Historical
Trust.
Their aims include:
- To promote research into the history and industrial archaeology of
the Royal Dockyard at Portsmouth and to disseminate the results of
such research.
- To promote the education of the public on matters connected with
the history of the Dockyard.
With links to the Dockyard, it is suiting for this scheme to be apart of these
museum, creating a link between the attractions along the sea front as
shown below. The museum will briefly incorporate some of these links
through the exhibitions to help tell the narrative of the Square Tower.
Collaborations with Historic England, The Maritime Archaeology Trust &
The Nautical Archaeology Society offers to engage visitors with experiences
not everyone can access; exploring history below the water through digital
access.
Not only does this provide a good exhibition space, but also helps to
support the research and development which these trustees carry out,
providing another platform for this information to be accessed.
With continued support and research, there is an opportunity for these
exhibitions to be temporary, changing every few months to different wrecks.
