A place worth remembering

Heritage Fleet restoration

Boats from Jersey Heritage’s fleet can be seen at the harbour by the Maritime Museum. The organisation credits the restoration to volunteers at its boat shop.[1]

Cobbles and a changed waterfront

The cobbled Ordnance Yard recalls the lanes common in Saint Helier around 1800. Jersey Heritage places nineteenth-century reclamation by the museum before the harbour’s construction at its present site.[2]

A restored house on Pier Road

Jersey Heritage’s Yard Walk points out Number 9 Pier Road, a house restored as a Victorian House for visitors to Jersey Museum.[2]
