Ramsey Shipyard, Ramsey
Archaeology
The site of Ramsey shipyard, which was established in the 1830s and continues in operation today. Initially occupied in the construction of timber, and later iron, ships, the shipyard was centred around a patent slipway by the time of the 1870 1:2500 scale Ordnance Survey map. This has since been built over, and the business operates from a larger slipway which occupies a former dock just to the west of the old slipway. Other buildings present on the 1870 map have since been replaced by modern workshops.
