Senhouse Roman Museum

We will continue to monitor and limit numbers in the building to ensure the museum does not become too crowded. Visitors can continue to pre-book a timeslot for their visit (see 'Visiting' page). Tickets will also be available to buy at the door, but may be limited.

Dramatically sited on cliffs overlooking the Solway Firth, this award winning museum is next to a Roman fort probably founded in the first century AD and rebuilt during the reign of the emperor Hadrian.Most of the objects in the Museum derive from the fort at Maryport and the Roman civil settlement attached to it.
