The workshop is the centre of Michael Bartley Shipwrights. Here you will find both shipwrights and apprentices working on a number of different projects from long term wooden boat restoration, to the building of the latest composite skiffs. A two level enclosed workshop allows for work to continue in all weather, a purpose built mobile cradle allowing smaller boats to be wheeled into the shed for longer term projects.
