Fully operational steamship |
Solent Steam Packet Ltd. PO Box 1028 Southampton, Hampshire SO18 1XT United Kingdom +44 2380 230405 http://www.ss-shieldhall.co.uk |
The SS Shieldhall is a fully operational, old fashioned steamship that docks at Ocean Village when it is not on a voyage. Although built in 1950, the ship has a classic design from the 1920s. After 30 years of service, it was carefully restored and preserved by Solent Steam Packet Limited and still regularly goes to sea. When berthed the ship is open for viewing by the public, with volunteers on hand to answer questions. Review © 2007, Wcities |
