About the organisation

Built in 1886 by local builder George Sedgewick, Portland's bluestone Rocket Shed houses a collection of rocket rescue equipment used by the volunteer rocket crews who attended ship rescues in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The Rocket Shed is open the same hours as nearby History House: 10am - 12.00pm and 1.00pm - 4.00pm daily. Closed Good Friday and Christmas Day. Admission is free to the Rocket Shed.
