Brunel's SS Great Britain

About

Ahoy! All aboard the SS Great Britian this half term for Mr Brunel's Big Day Out.

Experience the sights, sounds and smells of a Victorian voyage as you explore the 42 authentic cabins and saloons of the world’s first great ocean liner. Be sure to try out the bunks for size. 

Meet Mr Brunel and costumed characters in the historic dockyard before heading beneath the ‘glass sea’ for a 360-degree walk around the SS Great Britain’s awe-inspiring hull in the original dry dock.

Uncover the mind behind the ship, Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Find out how the famous engineer pushed boundaries with innovative feats of engineering. Step into his office, sit in a broad gauge carriage and compare your drawing skills with Brunel’s.
