LYNHER 1896

 Lynher was built in 1896 by Jame Goss of Calstock. She is the only Tamar Barge restored and licensed to carry passengers on the inland waterways.

Sadly we are unable to take bookings this year.  To help us maintain Lynher and her heritage please consider  joining the ‘Friends of Lynher’. Click here to find out more.

Lynher is currently moored in Topsham, on her way to Exeter City to join the Exeter Heritage Harbour.

LYNHER sets sails for her new home in Exeter 

This summer Lynher made a rare sea voyage for an inland Tamar Barge. We left the Plymouth Sound on Friday 16th August and reached our temporary destination, Topsham, on Saturday 17th. From there Lynher will lower her mast in Turf Lock and proceed to the Exeter Canal Basin to join the Exeter Heritage Harbour.
