Brief description
"The ‘Alfred Corry Charitable Trust’ was set up in 1994 (Charity Commissions No. 1039030) in order to restore and preserve the 1893 Southwold No.1 Lifeboat ‘Alfred Corry’. In March 2017 the Trust was registered as a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) and the number was changed to 1172006.
The ‘Alfred Corry’ was Southwold’s lifeboat for 25 years from 1893 until 1918 which, during which period, she was launched 41 times and saved 47 lives.
The Museum is situated in the car park at the end of Ferry Road at Southwold harbour, in what used to be the old 1923 Cromer Lifeboat shed, moved to Southwold from Cromer 80 miles away, by sea in 1998."
