National Waterways Museum: Ellesmere Port
A museum, which was called the North West Museum of Inland Navigation, was established at the disused port in the 1970s. It was later renamed The Boat Museum and then, until 2012, the National Waterways Museum at Ellesmere Port.
In the 1990s The Waterways Trust took on the management of the National Waterways Museum.
Funding from Heritage Lottery Fund helped create new displays and improve visitor facilities.
In 2012, the Waterways Trust was incorporated to the Canal & River Trust.
