Watchet has two small but fascinating museums. The Market house museum goes through the fascinating history of this small trading port. It also includes finds from the Fossil beaches.
The Boat museum holds a collection of old Flatner boats. These flat bottomed boats had no keel and were used for a wide variety of purposes.
Admission to
both museums is free but donations are very welcome to help these volunteer
run organisations.
Market house museum is open daily from Easter weekend until end of October.
10:30 -16:30.
Watchet Boat Museum is Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday from
Easter to October. 14:00 - 16:00.
