LYNHER 1896

Our crowdfunder is live! Head over to

Lynher Lifeline

to help Lynher getting through this winter’s refit

 

 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.

Lynher relocated to the Exeter Canal Basin. We look forward to open to the public once again in 2025. Watch this space as we settle Lynher in her new home to keep up to the date with news & events.  

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.
